Reference: Outliers: The Story of Success by Malcolm Gladwell

Excerpt: http://www.gladwell.com/outliers/outliers_excerpt1.html
There was a moment in history to be born to take advantage of monumental opportunities for success and prosperity. If born too late, other's have already ran with the prize opportunities. If born too early, you may be stuck in the old dogma of the previous era to even see those opportunities.
In researching the 10,000 hour rule, I found an unexpectedly good article here related to finding your own voice and koans.
