Malcolm Gladwell wrote about this afterwards. And Anders Ericsson wrote a book called Peak that I highly recommend. But My view is that he's just, so deliberate practice means do something and then study it. Like what did you do wrong? And then repeat. Do, study, repeat. Do, study, repeat. And you just do that for 10,000 hours.

So that's really good for repetitive tasks, like maybe a golf swing or memorizing lists of numbers or very repetitive, to some extent, music, musical performance. Not that you perform the same way every time, but if you're playing the piano, You play the same notes for the Moonlight Sonata every single time. You don't change. So that's the 10,000 hour rule.

And the proof is, is that I was able to do it. So that's like a scientific experiment. You have, you're curious about something, you come up with a theory and then you test that theory. So, uh, Another, you know, all the time I'm doing experiments. When I was doing comedy, I would experiment all the time on the stage different things I can do to get people to laugh.

But I much prefer what I call the 10,000 experiments rule, but it's really more like 100 or 200 experiments. And the whole point is, is that you should try to think of ways almost every day to experiment in your life. Uh, you know, I mentioned one, which was the, uh, you know, running for president. I can anyone, the, the, the question was, can anyone run for president? The theory was yes.

In business, you want to be able to experiment. Well, you know, a lot of times you go into business, you think you're going to make money a certain way. But what if we, you know, charged as a service instead of as a product or as a product instead of a service?
