10,000-hour rule
Topic
The 10,000-hour rule is a popular concept asserting that achieving world-class expertise in any skill requires approximately 10,000 hours of deliberate practice. Popularized by Malcolm Gladwell in his 2008 book Outliers, the rule is based on research by psychologist K. Anders Ericsson, though it has faced criticism and debate regarding the oversimplification of talent and practice.
