How can you tell when you’ve hit your peak at something? For example, on the discussions of Go around here people speak of hitting plateaus that might last for months, and then suddenly beginning to improve again. So how do you tell whether you’ve just hit a plateau and need to take a break or change approaches, versus actually hitting your ability cap?
That’s a tough one. I’ll add it to the post. I don’t think I’ve ever gotten near enough to my peak ability in anything to be able to judge, but maybe someone else has.
