Abstract
A concert pianist plays Chopin’s Nocturne, op. 9, no. 1, for an audience in awe. A trial attorney breaks down the defendant’s arguments without once pausing to consult her bench. A gymnast rips through the air and lands an impossible double-twisting double somersault. An expert clinician makes the elusive diagnosis seconds after listening to a case presentation. Despite performing in very different fields, these professionals followed the same path to expertise: deliberate practice.Keywords
