Expertise is not a faster version of what you do now; it's a different perception of the same information. The novice and the expert receive identical input and extract different amounts of it because the expert has spent years building the units that input arrives in. The goal of practice isn't to get quicker at processing details; it's to stop having to process them altogether.

Takeaways

  • Expertise is a different perception of the same information
