Josh Kaufman demonstrates in this TED Talk, how we can learn anything and be reasonably good at something in 20 hours.

The first step is to deconstruct skill or what you want to learn – start with the most important parts first.  Make sure to remove practice barriers/distractions – TV, internet while learning. Learn enough to self-correct.

The major barrier to skill acquisition is not intellectual – it’s emotional.
