Chris Do with a 1-minute video teaching you…
…how to become a master at anything using this Japanese concept called Shu-Ha-Ri.
🇯🇵 Shu-Ha-Ri represents the three stages of learning…
- Shu = learn the fundamentals
- Ha = innovate
- Ri = transcend
Chris gives the example of Pablo Picasso 🎨 going through these stages in his artistic career…
- Early work: “strong dedication to mastering the fundamentals of realism”
- Middle career: “experiments with proportion, dimension and perspective… begins to abandon realism”
- Late career: “invents cubism and surrealism”
Chris concludes…
Most people only know Picasso for his late works, but it’s important to remember the time he dedicated to first mastering the fundamentals.
