Problems

  1. How can learning be super enjoyable?
  2. How can you learn anything you want or need to learn—especially the things that seem really hard?
  3. How can learning consistently offer high payoffs, where the benefits clearly outweigh the costs?

Stakes

  1. When learning is deeply enjoyable, you’ll naturally develop the passion and persistence to master anything. But when learning feels boring, frustrating, or stressful, you’ll tend to avoid it—no matter how important it is.
  2. If you have the ability to learn anything you choose, you can reach any goal and become the person you want to be. But if you can only learn things that come easily, you’ll be blocked whenever something feels difficult or unfamiliar.
  3. If learning reliably delivers high payoffs, it becomes a no-brainer—like a game where you always come out ahead. But if learning feels costly, confusing, or unrewarding, it’s hard to stay motivated, no matter how valuable the outcome may be.

Solution

Use the research-based method of Deliberate Practice, which delivers three major benefits:

  1. Learning becomes deeply enjoyable—often even addictive.
  2. You build real competence in whatever you set out to learn.
  3. You minimize common drawbacks like stress, frustration, wasted time, high cost, and boredom.

Even better, Deliberate Practice isn’t just for individual learners. Parents, teachers, coaches, managers, and leaders can use it to guide others—helping them learn more effectively and enjoyably. In this way, Deliberate Practice is also a powerful method for teaching.

Finally, Deliberate Practice unites learning and doing. It’s not just a way to learn things—it’s also a proven method for accomplishing things; that is, reaching meaningful goals.
