To demonstrate this, we use diagrams consisting of feedback loops. The beauty of this construct is that everything is connected to something else, and it allows you to identify those connections and see the interactions.<br /><br />I think this idea is important. It seems to me a lot of people ignore the connections, and focus on one thing. They break training down into a linear process, when training is a system, a group of interactions.Scoutnoreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-1196651674832836865.post-49105572457928932402011-01-25T20:21:35.238-06:002011-01-25T20:21:35.238-06:00"just" ace?
