Ericsson's three types of practice

Anders Ericsson describes three types of practice: naive practice, purposeful practice, and deliberate practice. Naive practice involves mindlessly repeating tasks without expecting significant improvement. Purposeful practice involves setting clear goals, seeking feedback, and stepping out of one's comfort zone. Deliberate practice is the most effective type of practice, characterized by a systematic, specific, and teacher-guided approach to improvement.
