ways of improving the performance over time.

So, you want there to be a good habit basis for a skill.

And obviously when you start something new,

you have to be making decisions and exerting willpower.

Only over time will you start to automate-

it can take thousands of repetitions before you can do it,

habitually, automatically in a high-level,

I think that when you start out learning a skill,

that you're often starting out doing it thoughtfully

All you have to do is pick up the tennis racket and hold it,

There's not a whole lot of conscious deliberation

about what it's like to play a piece of music

they carry you along, but there's still so much to remember.

And it turns out they set cues throughout a piece.

So they will practice a piece in segments,

and then if someone coughs in the audience,

some other musician forgets where they are,

that they can then just pick up from and continue.

as a function of the opportunities that we have.

Of the choices that we have in our lives.
