First 20 Hours: How to Learn Anything... Fast

The First 20 Hours: How to Learn Anything... Fast

By Josh Kaufman

What if it's possible to learn the basics of any new skill in 20 hours or less. Research suggests it takes 10,000 hours to master a new skill, and the earliest hours are always the most frustrating. That's why it's so difficult to learn a new language, play an instrument, hit a golf ball, or shoot great photos.
