About this episode

Sharif and Dr. Kevin Majeres discuss the implicit phase of mastery and its implications for developing good and bad habits.

#310: In this episode, Sharif and Dr. Kevin Majeres explore the second of the three phases of mastery: the implicit phase of mastery. This phase is the most dangerous, because it is where bad actions can become automatic habits, and where good habits can become plateaus. Fortunately, there are ways to avoid these pitfalls.
