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.
The ability to keep discovering new ways to make things work emerges from our relationship with the whole.
When you feel comfortably in control,
your attention is probably focused entirely
on fixing faulty parts.
Unless you also pay attention
to the relationships that connect the whole,
it will soon stop working.

About the event
Flow state training helps players to sync their flow so that they don't need to force something to happen by sprinting up and down the court, and taking one pass and shooting. It’s important to note that players who do this are not bad players; they are simply out of sync with their team's flow.
Players are trained to sync their flow by paying attention to the relationships of connection between everything around them and take an action. To pause to see how that affected the relationships of connection, and then take another action, and so on. Everything becomes timeless, natural, and effortless as players fit fragments of the parts seamlessly together in different and unfolding ways, without the sensation of active thought. Performance is simply the result of allowing flow to happen so that something we could not have known before appears—a Wow moment.
We analyze what happened not…
