It's the thing you do that makes you good.&quot; ~Malcolm Gladwell Today's Mind Bullet revolves around a famous success tenet that, when you look deeper, simply reflects the magic of The Habit Factor: The 10,000-hour rule.&amp;nbsp; The 10,000-hour rule was made famous in Malcolm Gladwell's book&amp;nbsp;Outliers, which discusses the outlier-type variables that influence success, for example when you were born.&amp;nbsp; 10,000 hours spent practicing a skill.&amp;nbsp;This rings a bell. What is created when you do something over and over again until you become unconsciously proficient? That's right! A habit! In Outliers, while Gladwell points out the seemingly random occurrences that contribute to success, he discusses one consistent success factor that holds true across all instances: the 10,000 rule. That is, practicing a specific task that can be accomplished with 20&amp;nbsp;hours&amp;nbsp;of work a week for 10 years, leading to otherworldly proficiency. Tune in for more on Gladwell's 10,000-hour rule, the one great constant among extreme success stories, and how the Habit Factor compounds supportive behaviors to carry us automatically toward our goals. *** New listeners: By texting the word &quot;HABITS&quot; to the mobile phone number &quot;33444&quot; you will instantly receive your &quot;hack&quot;\/habit tracker\/habit development template, or you can download it here: thehabitfactor.com\/templates.
