Kaufman identifies six key principles to facilitate rapid skill acquisition:
You have the time. You have the talent (talent is mostly a myth anyway). What you have been missing is a methodology to bypass the early, humiliating phase of learning.
When you start, you will be terrible. You will feel shame. You will want to watch Netflix instead. That feeling is the "frustration barrier." Kaufman’s rule: Until then, sucking at the skill is mandatory.
