By a show of hands.
How many of you believe you could replicate this image of Brad Pitt
with just a pencil and piece of paper?
Well, I'm going to show you how to do this.
And in so doing,
I'm going to give you the skill necessary
to become a world-class artist.
And it shouldn't take more than about 15 seconds.
But before I do that,
how many of you believe you could replicate this image
of a solid gray square?
(Laughter)
Every one of us.
And if you can make one gray square,
you can make two, three, nine ...
Truth of the matter is,
if you could made just one gray square,
it'd be very difficult to argue
that you couldn't make every gray square necessary
to replicate the image in its entirety.
And there you have it.
I've just given you the skills necessary to become a world-class artist.
(Laughter)
I know what you're thinking.
"That's not real art,
certainly wouldn't make me a world-class artist."
So let me introduce you to Chuck Close.
He's one of the highest-earning artists in the entire world, for decades,
he creates his art using this exact technique.
You see, what stands between us
and achieving even our most ambitious dreams
has far less to do with possessing some magical skill or talent,
and far more to do with how we approach problems
and make decisions to solve them.
And because of the continuous and compounding nature
of all those millions of decisions
that we face on a regular basis,
even a marginal improvement in our process
can have a huge impact on our end results.
And I'll prove this to you
by taking a look at the career of Novak Djokovic.
Back in 2004,
when he first became a professional tennis player,
he was ranked 680th in the world.
It wasn't until the end of his third year
that he jumped up to be ranked third in the world.
He went from making 250,000 a year to 5 million a year,
in prize money alone,
and of course, he did this by winning more matches.
In 2011, he became the number one ranked men's tennis player in the world,
started earning an average of 14 million a year in prize money alone
and winning a dominating 90% of his matches.
Now, here's what's really interesting
about all of these very impressive statistics.
Novak doesn't control any of them.
What he does control are all the tiny little decisions
that he needs to make correctly along the way
in order to move the probability
in favor of him achieving these types of results.
And we can quantify and track his progress in this area
by taking a look at the percentage of points that he wins.
Because in tennis
the typical point involves one to maybe three decisions,
I like to refer to this as his decision success rate.
So, back when he was winning about 49% of the matches he was playing,
he was winning about 49% of the points he played.
Then to jump up, become number three in the world,
and actually earn five million dollars a year
for swinging a racquet,
he had to improve his decision success rate
to just 52 percent.
Then to become not just number one
but maybe one of the greatest players to ever play the game,
he had to improve his decision success rate
to just 55 percent.
And I keep using this word "just."
I don't want to imply this is easy to do,
clearly, it's not.
