Chapter V Major Groove 104
Picture 3 - The Shift
True learning involves growth. The growth within the stage of skill, the major groove, is horizontal; a spiral–like motion of improvement and organic development that improves the quality of the performance until the current stage of skill is mature.
Growth between the levels of skill is vertical, an abrupt growth that we call here the “shift.” The shift to the next level of skill is a result of a transition, experienced in the minor groove. The thoroughly elaborated transition is an essential precondition for the successful launching of the shift.
The shift – like winning – is a result of preparation. It cannot be done -- one can only let it happen when the time is right. The momentum for the shift is the “quantum leap,” an energetic moment indicating that it is time to leave the transition and move on to the next level and new learning endeavors.
