Default A quick note about prioritized learning

People say all the time stuff like this (in posts):

Well, I know what I'm thinking about isn't that important. It's what I'm working on, though. I can get to the more important stuff later.

Well, that's ok I guess... but say you were a quarterback on a football team. You said to your coach,

"I think we need to spend next practice working on the flea flicker."

Coach says,

"Well, we still don't have the timing right on our slant patterns. That's more important."

And you said to Coach,

"There's plenty of time for slant patterns later. Let's talk about the flea flicker now."

Think about what Coach would say to that idea...
