To better understand the fundamental differences in human emotions and abilities, let's start with the ability to actively select information, because the differences in human emotions and abilities come from the way we pay attention to ourselves. For example, meditators are more likely than others to actively focus on their breathing and feelings and block out other distractions. This is true in emotions, but it is also true in abilities. The weak are easily distracted. They must be in an ideal environment to learn. Any disturbance will upset them. They can't help but want to do something more interesting, and a hot news item or an interesting small talk can distract them from what's important. On the contrary, the strong ones have the advantage of actively shielding the interference, choosing the information they need and immersing themselves in it. For this reason, they even take the initiative to practice. For example, some people deliberately exercise their concentration in noisy places, which enables them to enter the state of deep reading and thinking anytime and anywhere. Humans end up at different levels depending on their ability to immerse. On a large scale, people with high immersion ability are often in the dominant layer, while people with low immersion ability are often in the dominated layer. If we want to stand out from the crowd, we must deliberately practice this quality, perhaps this is the golden key to change your fate and mine. In the previous article, I introduced the concepts of "active selection information" and "deep immersion", but the former is only the entry point and the latter is the key.

Because people who can actively choose information are not necessarily immersed in it, so many people can put down the phone, pick up a book, can give up entertainment, hone their skills, and even practice a lot, to move themselves, but they just can't let themselves become outstanding. This feeling is like clearly found a double-edged sword safety hilt, but do not know how to grasp, let a person very worrying. One of the reasons there are a lot of focused people in this world, but few outstanding ones, is that most people lack the ability to immerse themselves deeply. However, the ability to acquire deep immersion cannot be achieved by passion alone. It is a technique, and it has a methodology. Unfortunately, many of our highly accomplished predecessors have the ability to engage in deep immersion, but few have been able to articulate exactly what it is and how it should be acquired. Fortunately, the book Deliberate Practice gives us the general answer. After extensive research, psychologist Anders Ericsson and scientist Robert Poole have pointed out that the so-called genius, in fact, is not a mystery, its essence is "the right way" and "a lot of practice." In other words, we don't become geniuses because we didn't do it the right way or because we didn't practice enough.
