Your learning gets baked into your nervous system when you step away from intensive practice for a period of time.

They come disguised as helpers.
They want to “keep you from stepping into a landmine.”
They want to “fill you in” and “offer historical context.”
That’s code for:
You’re in their territory.
They don’t like what you’re doing.
And they don’t intend to move.

Your career depends on one ability only:
To read power flows properly.
