for the adult learner who drills sub-skills but never puts them back together
Goal
Run a 7-day sprint that breaks a skill apart, drills the pieces, then forces full integration.
Source principle
Directness: end every drill cycle by reassembling the whole skill in real context. : from Ultralearning by Scott Young.
The plan
- ๐งฉSun PMMap the full skill. Name every sub-skill it depends on.
- ๐งMon AMBaseline: do the full skill cold. Score yourself honestly.
- ๐งMon PMDrill sub-skill 1 in isolation. Focused reps.
- ๐งTue PMDrill sub-skill 2 in isolation. Focused reps.
- ๐งWed PMDrill sub-skill 3 in isolation. Focused reps.
- ๐ชThu PMFirst integration rep: put all three back together. Real context.
- ๐Fri AMScore the integration rep. Compare to Monday's baseline.
- ๐ชFri PMPatch the seam that broke worst. One focused fix.
- โSatRest day. No practice. Let it consolidate.
- ๐งSun AMFinal integration rep. Same conditions as baseline.
- โ
Sun PMCompare baseline vs. final. Did integration close the gap?
