Malcom Gladwell's The 10, 000 Hour Rule
After reading Malcom Gladwell’s “The 10,000 Hour Rule” I agree with some of his ideas on hard work and dedication of successful people, but his theory of success based on some ones birth year or family background I do not agree with.
He explains that musicians and chess players spend about ten years practicing their craft to become the best at what they do. I believe this is the background for all successful people. If you are born into a rich and powerful family it is possible that you are handed down all the success. There is another reason why it runs in families, I believe that those people are shown from a very early age all the hours of work and dedication it takes to become wealthy and powerful therefor they have a better understanding
