Here is a simple idea from Jim Rohn:
"You should work harder on yourself than on your job. Because... If you work hard on your job, you can make a living. If you work harder on yourself than you do on your job, you can make a FORTUNE."
And, Jim Rohn also said that this is a simple idea and simple to carry out. But, on the other hand, it is simple not to do it... Simple thing accumulated over years is your current result.

“一門專業技術的學習，1萬個小時是基礎；3萬個小時有機會自成一格；5萬個小時乃可駕馭並且創造。中國古人要做官去考試是3萬個小時為基礎，曰：寒窗十年。
像莫札特撰第九號鋼琴協奏曲而成名，時年22歲。之前學習了十二年，一天16個小時以上。莫扎特是學習7萬個小時才成名。”

è For any specialized knowledge, 10,000hours is fundamental;
After 30,000hours, there is an opportunity for him to form his own wisdom;
After 50,000 hours, than one can fully master the subject and create. In olden day of China, the student must study
for 30,000hours as fundamental before he went for state exam – which took ten
years.
è As Mozart became famous at the age of 22… He had practice piano 16 hours a day for 12
years. So, he got famous after practice
70,000 hours.
This is tally with the books – Talent is Overrated, and The
Talent Code.
I once read in a book in the library that Jesse Livermore,
Richard D. Wyckoff, and W.D. Gann had spent around 10 years in their research before they mastered their skill.
