16、ve, 41 a huge amount of dull work. Anyone who want to master a skill must run through the cycle of practice, 42 feedback, modification, and increasing improvement again, again and again. Some people seem able to concentrate on practicing an activity like this for years and take pleasure in their gra

17、dual improvement. Yet others find this kind of focused, time-intensive work to be 43 or boring.
