Mastery by George Leonard

I intend to read this book ASAP just from this excerpt which embodies the attitude necessary for any athlete, especially a competitive gymnast.

"Genius will come to naught or will burn out quickly if you don't choose the masters journey. This journey will take you along a path that is both arduous and exhilarating. It will bring you unexpected heartaches and unexpected rewards and you will never reach a final destination. (It would be a paltry skill that could be finally and completely mastered.) You'll probably learn as much about yourself as the skill you're pursuing. And although you'll often be surprised at what and how you learn, your progress toward master will almost always take on a characteristic rhythm that looks something like this:



THE MASTERY CURVE
There's really no way around it, learning any new skill relatively brief bursts of progress each of which is followed by a slight decline into a plateau somewhat higher in most cases than the one that preceded it. The curve above is necessarily idealized. In the actual learning experience progress is less regular; the upward spurts vary; the plateaus have their own dips and rises along the way. But the general progression is almost always the same. To take the masters journey you must practice diligently striving to hone your skills, to attain new levels of competence. But while doing so-and this is the inexorable fact of the journey-you have to be willing to spend most of your time on the plateau, to keep practicing even when you feel you are getting nowhere.

How do you move toward mastery? To put it simply you practice diligently, but you practice primarily for the sake of practice itself. Rather than being frustrated while being on the plateau you learn to appreciate and enjoy it as much as the upward surges."
