Two main components comprise the mastery of a craft: the act and the art.
The act is the mechanical piece: the click of the mouse, the tap of the keys, the strike of a hammer, etc.
The art is applying the magic to it.
Learning the act might take you a day or a week.
Learning the art is what takes the 10,000 hours.
The grace and posture and dedication and showmanship required to be a Michael Jordan or Steven King or ELEW might take you a lifetime.
Don’t wait for January 1st, you’re already late.
