This is the first part in a series of “masters” of their craft. In this first series, I’ve chosen Danny MacAskill, a bike trials master. His video below has exploded on YouTube and gain him popularity. Bike trials is a form of moutain biking in which the rider negotiates man made and natural obstacles without touching his feet to the ground.
Watch the video below. Danny is impressive because he’s a master at his craft. The time, discipline, and pain needed to reach the level of mastery is awe inspiring. From this, we can learn that with hard effort, dedication, and intense focus, we too, can be masters of our craft.
Daniel has written 66 articles. Daniel Hoang is a Manager at IntelliBridge Partners, a cutting edge management consulting firm in performance based management, financial management, information management, health care, and transportion. He is an experienced IT strategic planner, auditor evaluator, and technology enthusiast.

that is ridiculous. I don’t even know what to say
What we didn’t see was the number of times he had to do a trick in order to get it right. Imagine the discipline and hardship to master such a talent.
