The importance of deliberate skill development and long-term commitment

Deliberate training and practice are crucial for developing skills to high levels. This process takes a long time, commitment, and consistent daily and weekly investment over months and even years. People often struggle with building skills without a support structure to keep them disciplined. Traditional education systems provide a structured environment for building skills over a long period of time, but often do not equip individuals with deep skill sets needed for excellence. Many people lack the clarity to envision their future selves and work towards their long-term goals consistently. As a result, they tend to dabble in different pursuits, quitting when faced with difficulty, and never truly building anything of value. The inability to create something amazing stems from the lack of discipline and the inability to commit to deliberate skill development over time.
