Talent alone is not enough, to become expert are also needed 10,000 hours of practice, not only in sports but in any other field of application. This idea is increasingly spreading from the BBC and newspapers. In reality, the issue is more complex than as disclosed. Meanwhile, it is necessary that these hours are distributed in a long period of time. Talking about young people (as in the case of sports and musicians) are also needed at least 10 years. Since the beginning the young will spend a reduced time of about 300 hours a year, that for young of 15/16 years become 600/700 hours, 900 at 18/19 years and 1,200 in subsequent years, and so until the end of the career. The distribution in the long term of time spent on an activity is essential, otherwise the training or any other form of learning activity would be merely neurotic and alienating. In addition to becoming experts are needed excellent teachers and not just the application. No one learns alone and excellence is achieved with only high-level teachers, in terms of ability to guide young people and keep their motivation high. Family i another key component in the career, providing not only financial but also emotional support. We know well that there are parents particularly harmfuls and oppressives, the fact remains that a stable social environment is a factor that athletes become adults, recognize that it was important for them. Finally it must be said that 10 years may not be enough, for example be member of U.S. Olympic team needs 12/13 years since they started to practice their sport. In other words, we adults must never forget that the commitment of a young person is a long-term process. Therefore, to think about having a champion at home when a boy/girl is at the beginning of adolescence is only used to determine unnecessary illusions that almost certainly will collapse by reality, resulting in a negative impact on the confidence of the young in his/her skills.
