In sports and in life, CONNECTION is as important as everything else put together.

The ultimate connection is called Gestalt—an immersive experience of being part of something greater than the sum of its parts. For example, think about being a member of a basketball team that performs at a level that exceeds the sum of the individual talents of its players. In this context, accessing the team's Gestalt becomes more important than everything else put together.

You don't access a Gestalt by following instructions. It is achieved by observing and copying those within the Gestalt you wish to join, and processing the entirety of the experience so that you embody the Gestalt.

The signs you are lacking the connection skills to access a Gestalt are below; the best response is not to stop doing them, but to stimulate your Gestalt.

Fixating on small, disconnected details
Trying to bridge gaps by rearranging details
Feeling disrespect, control, or anxiety with changes
Stopping connections that allow group performance to exceed individual achievements
Feeling organised yet isolated
