It is different from work, play and simple repetition of a task. It requires effort, it has no monetary reward, and it is not inherently enjoyable.<\/p>\n<p>The common view held until recently was that expert-level performance was simply the result of talent and \u201cnatural abilities.\u201d But scientists believe that expert-level performance is primarily the result of expert-level practice NOT due to innate talent.<\/p>\n<p>So let&#8217;s have a discussion about how we can practice, formats and methods of practice in the Software Development world.
