How do they become so good, they can't be ignored?

他們是如何變得如此優秀，讓人無法忽視？

to 不定詞

I say you should look to, let's say, professional musicians, professional athletes, professional chess players, people who have to get good in a world that has a well-defined competence hierarchy, where you have a chess ranking, and you can't run away from it.

我說，你應該向專業音樂家、專業運動員、專業棋手學習，他們必須在一個能力等級分明的世界裡取得好成績，在這個世界裡，你有一個國際象棋排名，你不能逃避它。

Because in their world, there's a lot of effort that has gone into how do you systematically improve?

因為在他們的世界裡，如何有系統地改進，已經付出了很多努力。

And what you see is that they deliberately practice.

And there's really no shortcut to deliberate practice, to gaining mastery in almost any field.

在幾乎所有領域，要想獲得精湛的技藝，刻意練習確實沒有捷徑可走。

But in knowledge work in particular, so in this sort of whole array of various creative and other types of professions, we don't think that way, and people don't actually do a lot of this sort of systematic practice.

但在知識工作中，尤其是在各種創意和其他類型的職業中，我們並沒有這樣的想法，人們實際上也沒有做很多這樣的系統實踐。

And so that's why, in So Good They Can't Ignore You, I go and I hang out with a professional guitar player.

是以，在《好得讓人無法忽視》中，我去和一位專業吉他手一起玩。

And I say, okay, I want to watch you practice.

And in this case, there's actually a good reason to do so, because this is someone who started playing guitar at the same time that I started playing guitar.

在這種情況下，這樣做其實是有充分理由的，因為他是和我同時開始彈吉他的人。

And at the age where, like, I was not that great, I played in a rock band, and we were like, okay.

在我還不是那麼出色的時候，我參加了一個搖滾樂隊，我們當時覺得還不錯。

He was being, he had a record deal and was being heralded as, like, this talent, right, in new acoustic guitar playing.

他有唱片合約，被譽為新木吉他演奏的天才。

So I said, great, I want to understand why did he become really, really good, and I didn't.

所以我說，很好，我想弄明白為什麼他變得非常非常棒，而我沒有。

Watching him practice in this sort of musician's frat house he lived in in Boston with all these other musicians answered the question 100%.

看他在波士頓和其他音樂家一起住在一個類似於音樂家兄弟會的房子裡練習，就能百分之百地回答這個問題。

He was so intense when he was practicing the guitar that he would forget to breathe, right?

他練吉他的時候太緊張了，以至於忘記了呼吸，對吧？

So he'd be doing this, he was trying to get a lick faster.

所以他才會這樣做，他想快點舔到。

So the way he got the lick faster is let me play it about 10% faster than I can comfortably play it.

是以，他讓我彈奏的速度比我能自如彈奏的速度快 10%。

And he was so concentrated that he'd forget to breathe, and so he would do these ragged gasps every once in a while when his body would force him to take in air.

他太專注了，以至於忘記了呼吸，所以每隔一段時間，當身體迫使他吸入空氣時，他就會發出粗重的喘息聲。

You've said that there's a big difference between repetition and deliberate practice.

您說過，重複練習和刻意練習之間有很大的區別。

So how can people conceptualize the difference between repetition and actual deliberate practice?

那麼，人們如何從概念上理解重複和實際刻意練習之間的區別呢？

Right, because repetition, after an initial point when you're completely new to something, repetition does not make you better.

沒錯，因為重複，在你對某件事情完全陌生之後，重複並不會讓你變得更好。

刻意練習能讓你的身體得到伸展。

You stretch yourself past where you're comfortable, just like you do with a muscle, right?

就像鍛鍊肌肉一樣，把自己的肌肉拉伸到舒適的程度，對嗎？

You have to tire out the muscle, exhaust it if you're going to get growth, right?

你必須讓肌肉疲勞，讓它筋疲力盡，這樣才能獲得生長，對嗎？

So deep work, which is just my term for concentrating very intensely, right, where you give something intense focus without distraction so you don't glance at things.

所以，深度工作，這只是我的術語，指的是非常集中地專注於某件事情，不分心，這樣你就不會亂看東西了。

No phone, no browser tabs, you're just focused in.

沒有手機，沒有瀏覽器標籤，你只需全神貫注。

This skill is essentially the answer to the question that my readers had about So Good They Can't Ignore You, which was, okay, how do I become so good I can't be ignored?

這項技能本質上就是回答讀者對 "好得讓人無法忽視你 "提出的問題，即 "好吧，我怎樣才能變得好得讓人無法忽視？

And in a lot of fields, this ability to concentrate very intensely, first of all, that's necessary for deliberate practice.

在很多領域，這種高度集中注意力的能力首先是刻意練習所必需的。

Deliberate practice requires you to be in a state of deep work.

刻意練習要求你處於深度工作狀態。

And deep work is also just what allows you to produce very effectively.

而深層次的工作也恰恰能讓你非常有效地進行生產。

If you want to use your skills to produce high-quality work, you want to produce it at a high quantity.

如果你想利用自己的技能製作出高質量的作品，你就必須大量製作。

For time spent, very concentrated effort is what's important.

對於花費的時間來說，非常集中的努力才是最重要的。

But what I discovered working on that book is that it's a skill that has to be trained.

但我在寫這本書的過程中發現，這是一種必須經過訓練的技能。

If you're good at deep work, you can pick up skills very quickly.

如果你擅長深層次的工作，就能很快掌握技能。

But deep work itself is a skill that has to be trained.

但是，深度工作本身就是一種必須經過訓練的技能。
