10,000 hours

I’ve just finished the most interesting book that I’ve ever read.  It’s called Outliers…the story of success by Malcolm Gladwell.  He has done a very deep study as to why some people have become so successful.  Yes you need some talent and yes hard work goes into it too, but he studies your culture and the circumstances that allow to succeed.  In the book he talks about needing 10,000 hours of doing something to be considered an expert, so I decided to do this video on that…We only work ten days a month…I think we should be working towards 10,000 hours in something to help prepare us for life after the fire service.
