The 10,000 Hour Theory

Earlier this year, I read a book by Malcom Gladwell called "Outliers." The central theme of the book was it takes about 10,000 for most folks to become an "expert" at something.  This idea was a part of the inspiration for starting lunchtime studies, and this blog.

Here is an except from Outliers in which Mr. Gladwell writes about the 10,000 hour theory: http://www.gladwell.com/outliers/outliers_excerpt1.html
