Not only does Gladwell point out how some of our greatest geniuses and wunderkids had amazing stories (and very lucky ones), they also point us in the direction of how we can change our own society to create even more brilliant minds. Highly recommended! To those not satisfied with the 'how to' aspect...have you picked an area in which (like the Beatles) you want to get your 10,000 hours? Is there a way you can redo your day to day schedule to speed up your 10,000 hr acquisition time (eg. 3 years instead of 10)? Cool blog! I just finished reading Outliers a second time, just loved it.

I'm definitely going to, now I've read your post... they sound brill. I'd love it if you could summarise your thoughts for me as a comment on my blog, someone who actually knows what he's talking about!
