They say 10,000 hours, but it’s not like an actual hard number where you are magically a professional.

10,000 hours is like 13-14 years, practicing two hours a day. But the purpose of the saying is that if you do practice a lot for a long time, then you will begin to feel it like a second nature.

Simply because you’ve done it so much.
