Unlike regular practice that involves mindless repetitions, deliberate practice involves purposeful sessions.
Each session aims to improve performance and increase the skill ceiling of the practitioner.
That is each session to be effective, [[id:1a6187c9-6c79-4378-bf8d-935c8a3d9167][When learning a new skill, begin with a specific end-goal to create a solid starting point]].

To put it simply, deliberate practice involves getting out of comfort zone and enforces discipline.
For example, trying yourself to solve some hard mathematical problems or competitive programming for the first time with a mentor.

You can also [[id:0dbfee88-cdce-48d1-9a10-23fc12d9bcd5][Refer to advanced resources when skill-building for a solid short-term goal]].
With it, identify the top performers in the field and try to make a conclusion on how do they get so far.

You can also put yourself in their shoes as a newcomer.
Try to tackle a difficult problem, [[roam:Diving head-first with a difficult problem is a good indicator of progress]].
Beware, [[roam:Diving head-first into a difficult problem makes a bad start]].

Update the files for convention Apparently, the convention (at least starting from 2018) is to make the keywords and block names to be in lowercase as stated from one of the following discussions at https://orgmode.org/list/87tuuw3n15.fsf@nicolasgoaziou.fr/. The files was updated with a one liner of shell. However, this is Emacs and org-mode does have an API to let you do stuff in your config and interact with the documents internally so it is not an elegant solution in any way. 2021-04-01 16:08:15 +00:00			`#+title: Deliberate practice`

Create entries on potential traps on learning Ehh... Why I didn't think of those things but here we are. They are going to stay for a little while. Also, there's a slight shift in how I want use my wiki now. Instead of trying to craft every note into a set of evergreen notes. While Andy Matuschak's notes are very practical, it also focuses too much on crafting evergreen notes (a bit too much). Or maybe that was just my impression? Either way, I'll let some of my thoughts to drift if it able to link somewhere in the notes. I think I'm getting the point of Luhmann's original use of Zettelkasten as a research partner. 2021-05-20 13:58:54 +00:00			`#+date_modified: "2021-05-20 20:34:52 +08:00"`
