Chasing my 10,000 hours
Have you heard they say you need 10,000 hours of practice to master something? From the bottom of my soul, I really want to be the best artist I can be and bring my ideas to the world through the best skills I can acquire.
10,000 hours is a lot. I know this ought not be taken as an exact number, and anyway, when will I know that I am good enough?
But I feel like I can turn the number into an ally. I need a fixed goal that I can chase after. I am sure I will lost count sooner than later, but I am planning to start counting the hours I spend doing art every day. It is not enough right now. I want to allow and to help myself to become someone as close to a ‘master’ as I can get.
The counting starts today. Oh, and if this sounds like the kind of challenge that would motivate you, join me and let me know!
