Storming

Hrm

" 'The art of any art is the art of obsession,' she said. 'This is not something that people in general tend to understand. They encourage you to be well-rounded, which bemuses me in a society that tends to reward the specialists – the obsessives – those who decided to excel at one thing instead of becoming good at a hundred or competent at a thousand.' "

In another note, the psychiatry professor ruminated outloud to the lecture hall full of med studnets,"Yes most of you have class C personality disorders, thats probably how you have got this far in your training."

per wikipedia:
Cluster C (anxious or fearful disorders)
Avoidant personality disorder (DSM-IV code 301.82): social inhibition, feelings of inadequacy, extreme sensitivity to negative evaluation and avoidance of social interaction.
Dependent personality disorder (DSM-IV code 301.6): pervasive psychological dependence on other people.
Obsessive-compulsive personality disorder (not the same as obsessive-compulsive disorder) (DSM-IV code 301.4): characterized by rigid conformity to rules, moral codes and excessive orderliness.

Debated with M the merit of 10,000 hours, while he casually took apart his electric keyboard and reconstructed it.
