Even if you start with difficulties such as driving a car, giving a speech, writing a sentence, etc., people will improve through training. David R. McKiver, who has experience working at Google, explains the 'efficient training method' he developed to improve difficult tasks such as 'writing text'.

Actually, the training method by McKeeber is as follows, based on the example of 'writing a sentence that others see, such as a tweet or blog article'.

Step 1: Divide the seemingly difficult goals into 'easy tasks'
'Writing sentences,' McKiver divided into four tasks.

A: Enter characters (typing)
B: Writing out sentences
C: Proofreading the whole sentence
D: Showing sentences to others

Step 2: Set goals to improve on 'easy tasks'
A: From typing to D: Show up to others, in order to improve on each item, McKeevar set the following goals.

A: Being able to use touch type
B: 'write as you speak'
C: To perform the calibration work with a specific purpose
D: Do not think about quality, just write a sentence

Step 3: Train to reach the goal
The training method that Mr. McKiver tried to do was the following.

A: Practice repetitively with typing software anyway
B: Really talk to recorders and recording apps. When you enter letters, read it out loud
C: 'Speak out loud sentences and find out where the sentence break is' 'replace difficult words or unnatural words with other words' 'Similar sentences with fewer letters and fewer words Work in line with each goal, such as
D: 'Determine the object to be observed, such as a lighted candle, and write down everything you notice about it.' 'Determine the number of letters about the theme you know well', and Write a sentence such as 'Determine one, determine the number of characters and write'

Training ends when you achieve your goals and feel that each task is easy. If you hit a wall, it is recommended that you try “try another 'easy task'”, “take an expert's instruction or ask yourself a question like rubber duck, debug, etc.” But if there is still no effect, there is a possibility that you can not improve.

'This training method is not easy, but it helps you,' said McKeever. 'If you can not complete the whole procedure, it can be effective if you go halfway.'
