. Nueva luz sobre el viejo debate de talento versus esfuerzo El debate es tan viejo como el deporte competitivo. Estrellas como Usain Bolt, Michael Phelps y otros ¿son engendros de la naturaleza nacidos para triunfar o simplemente son personas que han ido mas alla de sus limites biologicos a traves de entrenamiento y determinacion? La verdad es mucho mas complicada que la simple dicotomia entre naturaleza y crianza. En la decada posterior a la codificacion del genoma humano, diversos investigadores han estudiado la relacion existente entre los componentes biologicos de un ser humano y el ambiente competitivo en el cual se desarrolla. La ciencia del deporte ha entrado en una nueva era.

Tiger Woods obtuvo su primer kit de golf en miniatura a la edad de diez meses, por lo que ya demostraba su talento en la television nacional a los dos años de edad. Este cambio cultural hacia la especializacion no solo aparece en el mundo del deporte. Tambien es cierto, de hecho, para la academia, nuestro complejo sistema financiero y la medicina. Por ejemplo, los oncologos ahora rara vez se centran en el cancer solo. En cambio, se estan especializando en una enfermedad de un organo a la vez.-ACERCA DE DAVID EPSTEIN: EL AUTOR DEL LIBRO ORIGINALDavid Epstein, periodista y autor galardonado, posee una amplia experiencia en ciencias y deportes. Es sabido que Barack Obama leyo su primer libro, The Sports Gene, y que Bill Gates compartio su charla TED sobre la ciencia del rendimiento deportivo, que ademas cuenta con millones de visitas.

Grandi successi ed errori inizialmente si assomigliano. Se le storie di quanti conseguono risultati importanti vengono spesso raccontate come tragitti perfettamente lineari, Generalisti dimostra che la verita e di tuttaltro segno. Analizzando la vita e la carriera di atleti, musicisti, imprenditori e scienziati affermati, David Epstein prova che una specializzazione non precoce, preceduta da una serie consistente di tentativi ed errori, e in genere alla base della realizzazione. Roger Federer scopri il tennis dopo aver sperimentato tutti gli altri sport che gli fossero capitati. Django Reinhardt sviluppo il suo ineguagliato stile chitarristico dopo aver perso luso di due dita. E Vincent Van Gogh si scopri capace di dipingere nello stile che avrebbe rivoluzionato per sempre larte solo negli ultimi due anni di vita, dopo aver tentato di intraprendere i mestieri piu disparati ed essere stato giudicato mediocre da maestri e supervisori. Se una iperspecializzazione perseguita sin dai primi anni e di norma considerata un vantaggio competitivo, le storie di questo libro raccontano invece come perfezionarsi in un solo campo possa risultare un limite, mentre i momenti di crisi e di improvvisazione possano essere i piu utili. Ne deriva che, se dedicare parte del tempo ad attivita e compiti non immediatamente monetizzabili e inefficiente, allora linefficienza e un obiettivo da perseguire con tenacia. Tutti si specializzano in qualcosa prima o poi ma, come dimostra David Epstein, per conseguire qualunque risultato nessun metodo e piu efficace che trasformare.

A wonderful book Thoughtful fascinating Malcolm Gladwell Do you believe some people are born athletes Is sporting talent innate or something that can be achieved through endurance and practise In this ground breaking and entertaining exploration of athletic success award winning writer David Epstein gets to the heart of the great nature vs nurture debate and explodes myths about how and why humans excel Along the way Epstein Exposes the flaws in the so called 10 000 hour rule that states that rigorous practice from a young age is the only route to success Shows why some skills that we imagine are innate are not like the bullet fast reactions of a baseball player Uncovers why other characteristics that we assume are entirely voluntary like the motivation to practice might in fact have important genetic components Throughout The Sports Gene forces us to rethink the very nature of success

But recent research has shown that this school of thought is not necessarily true.In Range, David Epstein carefully examines the worlds most successful people and discovers that in most fieldsespecially those that are complex and unpredictable by far the greatest athletes, artists, musicians, and scientists are those who have garnered a wide skillset beginning at a young age, not those who specialized early in one skill.Carefully adapted for young readers, this book follows inspirational stories of athletes, artists, scientists, and other accomplished adults across many disciplines and provides you with the tools to tap into your limitless potential.

The #1 New York Times bestseller that has all America talking, from the author of the highly anticipated Inside the Box: How Constraints Make Us Better.The most important businessand parentingbook of the year. ForbesUrgent and important. . . an essential read for bosses, parents, coaches, and anyone who cares about improving performance. Daniel H. PinkShortlisted for the Financial Times/McKinsey Business Book of the Year AwardPlenty of experts argue that anyone who wants to develop a skill, play an instrument, or lead their field should start early, focus intensely, and rack up as many hours of deliberate practice as possible. If you dabble or delay, youll never catch up to the people who got a head start. But a closer look at research on the worlds top performers, from professional athletes to Nobel laureates, shows that early specialization is the exception, not the rule. David Epstein examined the worlds most successful athletes, artists, musicians, inventors, forecasters and scientists. He discovered that in most fieldsespecially those that are complex and unpredictablegeneralists, not specialists, are primed to excel. Generalists often find their path late, and they juggle many interests rather than focusing on one. Theyre also more creative, more agile, and able to make connections their more specialized peers cant see. Provocative, rigorous, and engrossing, Range makes a compelling case for actively cultivating inefficiency. Failing a test is the best way to learn. Frequent quitters end up with the most fulfilling careers. The most impactful inventors cross domains rather than deepening their knowledge in a single area. As experts silo themselves further while AI threatens the jobs once reserved for highly focused humans, people who think broadly and embrace diverse experiences and perspectives will increasingly thrive.

From the #1 New York Times bestselling author of Range, why limits are the key to stimulating creativity, innovation, collaboration, and personal contentment.We live in a world that gives us seemingly infinite choices and prizes freedom above all else. We have an unprecedented number of options regarding what to do, who to be, and how to spend our time. All that choice is wonderful; it is also overwhelming. The irony is that total freedom can be paralyzing, and unlimited resources dont necessarily lead to the biggest breakthroughs. In fact, overvaluing complete freedom can be disastrous for everything from starting a company to harnessing creativity to finding personal satisfaction.David Epstein argues that all of usindividuals, businesses, institutions, even societiescan benefit from narrowing our options. He dives into the science and practice of constraints, exploring exactly when and how guardrails can be beneficial, whether were working with limited resources or using self-imposed boundaries to tap unexpected wells of focus and innovation.Original, galvanizing, and deeply researched, Inside the Box tells absorbing stories of people and organizations that embraced constraints to transform themselves, and the worldas well as a few that struggled from a lack of limits. Epstein reveals how boundaries create breakthroughs, and how setting the right constraints can help you become the most creative, productive, and satisfied version of yourself.
