Great to see ideas like this being applied in new contexts. I like it! But, what’s “kata”?

“Just doing something over and over” becomes experience when you learn from the repetition. You either develop “muscle memory” of some sort, or you realize that you have erred, be it ever so slightly, and vow not to make that mistake again. I do the same things over and over, but each time I do something I’ve done before I try not to take for granted the idea that I know how to do something and always look for ways to improve today and tomorrow.

Great post! It’s true that practice can sometimes mean doing the wrong technique over and over again. I discovered that while learning calligraphy years ago. You must constantly be learning in order to see progress.

Excellent discussion of how to take your skills and knowledge to the next level. This reminds me that I haven’t challenge myself for a while now and need to do something to push myself to the next level. Thank you.
