I heard the 10,000 hour rule mentioned on the radio today, and I thought about how many things I've spent less than 10,000 hours on. I'm sure you're capable of being an honor student - think about all the hours of practice you've put in! @ Lori, even if the concept isn’t exactly a surprise, I think a lot of people, myself included, have underestimated what success really takes.

I can't say much of that came as surprise 2 me. It should be obvious to most people that success isn't an overnight thing or maybe it's just that I've had a rather realistic dose of that, lately. My current goal is to be a honor student & even though school came easily to me when I was younger, I've been falling below my standards because my advanced classes take more devotion. I definitely see this lesson as an inspiration. I've been having a lot of trouble convincing myself that I'm still capable of being an honor student. But if Darren can do that with his blog, why can't I do it with my GPA. Thank You =) Hello, again!

That's a good point that the absence of effortless extraordinary success is taken to be a failure, when really it just means that they have many more steps to take. Now, I'm off to leave you an independent comment! :) @ Terrence, “painfully wonderful” is a new one for me, but I like it!
