Practice remembering things for 10,000 hours. Then you'll be an expert. ;)

Sort of mirrors the 10,000 hours of practice theory.

Yes, but practice is how you get good at anything.

it's not the number of hours you put in - it's how you practice.you can get very proficient quickly if you apply insights to your performance to identify your shortcomings and address those.and similarly you can spend 30k+ hours learning something and be merely mediocre.
