Functional/Conversational in My Skill achieved
24 August
| Period | Focus | Tasks | Notes |
|---|---|---|---|
| Weeks 1–4 | Foundations | Core concepts, guided learning, structured practice. 5h/week. | Build first small project |
| Weeks 5–9 | Deliberate Practice | Apply skill in real scenarios. Identify and target weak areas. Get feedback. | Stretch slightly beyond comfort each session |
| Weeks 10–12 | Refinement & Integration | Polish weak areas. Do showcase project or assessment. Teach what you know. | The best way to learn is to teach |
60 hours of deliberate practice is enough to reach Functional/Conversational in most skills.
Deliberate practice (focused on weakness, with feedback) is 3–5× more effective than repetitive practice.
The biggest mistake: passive learning without active recall or application. Read → Do → Review.
Consistency beats intensity. 0.7 hrs every day beats a 7-hour weekend session.
