If you get to thinking you’re a person of some influence, try ordering somebody else’s dog around.

Practicing fundamentals keeps us sharp, allows us to continue completion of higher tasks.

As we do so, formerly higher tasks become fundamental.  Spending too much time on fundamentals, such as geometrical shapes, means completion of higher tasks no longer continues.

So, understand the rudiment, fully, then move on.

The sig makes me think.
