Outliers

     In class, our first response question to Outliers was:
10,000 hours =
 417 total days.
 at hours/day of dedicated practice/ concentration you would have reached 10,000 hours if you had practiced one thing every day since birth.

    What thing have you spent the most time doing in your life to this point? How much time have you spent doing this thing? Are you still actively pursuing this thing?


As a response, I think the one thing I spent the most time doing in my free time would be making and editing powerpoint presentations. I usually spend what time I have when I don’t need to do homework or work on something for my mom or dad. One summer, when I truly discovered it, I must have spent at least half or more of my summer on making my powerpoint. After that point, though, I  began doing it less because I started school again and even less in junior high. I am still pursuing this because sometimes in school, I will make another one (and improve my skills) for a school project.
