Training the skills of relating
Learning means first pinning down the parts we need to master, then training how they relate to one another.
To master individual parts, we lose sight of how they relate. It is easy to become trapped in an endless loop of mastering parts before progressing, dismissing any suggestion that a lack of relational skills is the real barrier.
Training the skills of relating gives us experience of moments that are greater than the sum of the parts we have mastered — and we find we need to pin down far fewer parts in the first place.

I hope you are well.
When my children didn’t fit into an increasingly standardized education system, my one clear resolve was to resist what everyone was urging me to do. I didn’t yet know the alternative, but I refused to respond to my children's struggles by doubling down on drilling the parts they were told they needed to master. In time, that refusal led me to help my own children—and many others—practice the skills of relating. My children know how to train the skills of relating.
