Comments on: Late Bloomers and Geniuses – New Year Approaching http://www.virginiaspiegel.com/blog/archives/4202 Artist Wed, 08 Feb 2012 04:41:04 +0000 hourly 1 http://wordpress.org/?v=3.3.1 By: admin http://www.virginiaspiegel.com/blog/archives/4202/comment-page-1#comment-4992 admin Mon, 28 Dec 2009 13:41:08 +0000 http://www.virginiaspiegel.com/blog/?p=4202#comment-4992 Thanks for stopping by and commenting. I think the main thing to hold in mind about "late bloomers" is not so much the "late" thing, but the WAY of working that is inherent in Gladwell's designations. It just takes time when process IS product. Thanks for stopping by and commenting.

It makes sense - i wasn't ready earlier. Great post Virginia, I feel much better about being a late bloomer now! It makes sense – i wasn’t ready earlier.

One of my students recently recommended "Outliers" about "Success" and his theory...It answered many of my questions about "coincidence", and "luck" vs. hard work, and skill; and how it all plays into success. His 10,000 hours of preparing to become a master is pretty thought provoking as well. Excellent, easy reading. I also love Malcolm Gladwells’ books!
