Pursue what you love.
1. 追求自己喜欢的。

Passion is an incredible motivator. It fuels focus, resilience, and perseverance.
激情是一个惊人的动力。它给注意力、恢复力和毅力提供燃料。

Do the hardest work first.
2. 先做最难得工作。

We all move instinctively toward pleasure and away from pain. Most great performers, Ericsson and others have found, delay gratification and take on the difficult work of practice in the mornings, before they do anything else. That's when most of us have the most energy and the fewest distractions.
我们都本能的朝向乐趣而避开痛苦。爱立信和其他研究人员发现，大多数优秀的执行者把能带来满足感的工作推后，在上午先处理棘手的任务，再做其他事。因为上午我们精力最充沛，干扰最小。

Practice intensely,
3. 集中练习。

without interruption for short periods of no longer than 90 minutes and then take a break.Ninety minutes appears to be the maximum amount of time that we can bring the highest level of focus to any given activity. The evidence is equally strong that great performers practice no more than 4 ½ hours a day.
持续无间断的不超过90分钟的短周期练习，然后再休息。90分钟是我们能高度集中于一个特定活动的最持久的时间。大量证据表明优秀的执行者每天的练习不超过四个半小时。

Seek expert feedback, in intermittent doses.
4.寻找专业的反馈。

The simpler and more precise the feedback, the more equipped you are to make adjustments. Too much feedback, too continuously, however, can create cognitive overload, increase anxiety, and interfere with learning.
反馈越是简单和精确，越有利于你做出调整。过多过于频繁的反馈反而造成认知的超载，增加忧虑，干扰学习。

Take regular renewal breaks.
5.有规律的休息 。

Relaxing after intense effort not only provides an opportunity to rejuvenate, but also to metabolize and embed learning. It's also during rest that the right hemisphere becomes more dominant, which can lead to creative breakthroughs.
在付出了极大地努力后休息一下不仅提供了一个恢复精力的机会，而且有利于新旧知识的结合并加深记忆。休息时大脑右半球起支配作用，会带来创造性的突破。

Ritualize practice.
6.使练习仪式化 。

Will and discipline are wildly overrated. As the researcher Roy Baumeister has found, none of us have very much of it. The best way to insure you'll take on difficult tasks is to ritualize them — build specific, inviolable times at which you do them, so that over time you do them without having to squander energy thinking about them.
意志力和纪律被过多的高估。研究员罗伊·鲍迈斯特发现，我们都没有太多的意志力和纪律。确定你开始棘手的任务的最好的方法就是使它们仪式化——建立一个专门的不可侵犯的时间表来做这些事情，那么过段时间你就不需要花时间想起它们再去做了。
