When it’s not working, we often limit our response to doubling down on fixing faulty parts, when we should also focus on strengthening the relationships between the parts so they connect better as a whole.
The whole is not the sum
of its parts. It's the
relationship
between them.
Insight emerges from the relationship of the whole, not from a reduction to the parts.
When we strengthen the relationships between the parts so they connect more effectively as a whole, we can keep it working as problems arise.
When our only response to things not working is doubling down on fixing faulty parts, we are dependent on someone else to take control and repair them. If we begin to feel controlled by someone helping us, strengthening the relationships between the parts so they connect better as a whole, we have likely shifted our attention back to fixing faulty parts.

About the event
The session is run some of our teaching members. They know when they see machine-mindedness on the players' faces. They know when players are waiting to act until they spot a direct path to score and target winning a collision with an opposing player who is the way. While physicality is acceptable, it should be used to create space for maneuvering around opponents not going through them. Relationships run the play not machines. This approach allows players more time to execute their basketball skills, leading to improvement, which is a pleasant side benefit. The primary aim of this session is to help us move away from machine-mindedness. To be more human than machine.
