The Talent code : greatness isn't born, it's grown, here's how
What is the secret of talent? How do we unlock it? In this
groundbreaking work, journalist and New York Times bestselling author
Daniel Coyle provides parents, teachers, coaches, businesspeople—and
everyone else—with tools they can use to maximize potential in
themselves and others.Whether you’re coaching soccer or teaching
a child to play the piano, writing a novel or trying to improve your
golf swing, this revolutionary book shows you how to grow talent by
tapping into a newly discovered brain mechanism.Drawing on
cutting-edge neurology and firsthand research gathered on journeys to
nine of the world’s talent hotbeds—from the baseball fields of the
Caribbean to a classical-music academy in upstate New York—Coyle
identifies the three key elements that will allow you to develop your
gifts and optimize your performance in sports, art, music, math, or just
about anything. • Deep Practice--Everyone knows that practice
is a key to success. What everyone doesn’t know is that specific kinds
of practice can increase skill up to ten times faster than conventional
practice.• Ignition--We all need a little motivation to get
started. But what separates truly high achievers from the rest of the
pack? A higher level of commitment—call it passion—born out of our
deepest unconscious desires and triggered by certain primal cues.
Understanding how these signals work can help you ignite passion and
catalyze skill development.• Master Coaching--What are the
secrets of the world’s most effective teachers, trainers, and coaches?
Discover the four virtues that enable these “talent whisperers” to fuel
passion, inspire deep practice, and bring out the best in their
students.These three elements work together within your brain to
form myelin, a microscopic neural substance that adds vast amounts of
speed and accuracy to your movements and thoughts. Scientists have
discovered that myelin might just be the holy grail: the foundation of
all forms of greatness, from Michelangelo’s to Michael Jordan’s. The
good news about myelin is that it isn’t fixed at birth; to the contrary,
it grows, and like anything that grows, it can be cultivated and
nourished. Combining revelatory analysis with illuminating
examples of regular people who have achieved greatness, this book will
not only change the way you think about talent, but equip you to reach
your own highest potential.
