083 – How to get better at anything, faster

Last week I finished reading a book called ‘Peak – Secrets from the new science of expertise’.

I wanted to share a concept from that book with you today because it contains a model that has the potential to:

  • accelerate the learning process and
  • dramatically increase our level of expertise in a short amount of time.

What trader wouldn’t want that?

Most people tend to assume that if they keep working on something they will automatically get better at it, but performance scientists have shown that is not necessarily what happens.

A lot of people reach a certain level of competence and plateau…

Others don’t really progress much at all…

And often the process can take a long time to play out, progress can be slow…

So that leads to the question, is it possible to reduce the amount of time that takes?

Are there techniques that we can use to accelerate the process?

Well, there are and today we’re going to talk about one called “deliberate practice”.

Our special guest, Kris Longmore from Robot Wealth, is going to explain what it is and how we can leverage it to become better traders, faster.

Happy Trading,
Andrew.
