第1篇

The latest research suggests that the key factor separating geniuses from the merely

accomplished is not IQ, a generally bad predictor of d, it’ s purposeful

performers spend more hours practising their craft. If you wanted to picture how

a typical genius might develop, you’ d take a girl who possessed a slightly above average language

ability. It wouldn’ t have to be a big talent, just enough so that she might gain some sense

of distinction. Then you would want her to meet, say, a novelist, who coincidentally shared some

similar qualities. Maybe the writer was from the same town, had the same family background, or,

shared the same birthday.

This contact would give the girl a vision of her future would give her some idea of

a fascinating circle she might someday would also help if one of her parents died when

she was 12, giving her a strong sense of insecurity and fuelling a desperate need for success.

Armed with this ambition, she would read novels and life stories of writers without end. This

would give her a primary knowledge of her ’d be able to see new writing in deeper ways

and quickly understand its inner workings.

Then she would practise writing. Her practice would be slow, painstaking and errorfocused.

By practising in this way,she delays the automatizing process. Her mind wants to turn conscious,

newly learned skills into unconscious, automatically performed skills. By practising slowly, by

breaking skills down into tiny parts and repeating, she forces the brain to internalize a better

pattern of performance. Then she would find an adviser who would provide a constant stream of

feedback, viewing her performance from the outside, correcting the smallest errors,pushing her

to take on tougher challenges. By now she is redoing problems — how do I get characters into

a room — dozens and dozens of times. She is establishing habits of thought she can call upon

in order to understand or solve future problems.

The primary quality our young writer possesses is not some mysterious genius. It’ s the

ability to develop a purposeful, laborious and boring practice routine. The latest research takes

some of the magic out of great achievement. But it underlines a fact that is often neglected.

Public discussion is affected by genetics and what we’re “hardwired” to do. And it’s true

that genes play a role in our capabilities. But the brain is also very plastic. We construct

ourselves through behavior.
