The book of the week:

Rework: Change the way you work forever. by Jason Fried and David Heinemeier Hansson

Quote: Prof. K. Anders Ericsson said: "In most domains it's remarkable how much time even the most talented individuals need in order to reach the highest levels of performance. The 10,000 hour number just gives you a sense that we're talking years of 10 to 20 hours a week which those who some people would argue are the most innately talented individuals still need to get to the highest level."
