The idea of expertise still intimidates us — we believe we need innate talent to excel, or think excelling seems prohibitively difficult.  PEAK belies both of these notions, proving that almost all of us have the seeds of excellence within us — it’s just a question of nurturing them by reducing expertise to a discrete series of attainable practices. PEAK offers invaluable, often counterintuitive, advice on setting goals, getting feedback, identifying patterns, and motivating yourself.  Whether you want to stand out at work, or help your child achieve academic goals, Ericsson’s revolutionary methods in this book will show you how to master nearly anything.
