Description
Sticky thought loops with self-reinforcing momentum. Fragmented baseline attention that locks into repetitive dwelling cycles. Slow to build, hard to stop once engaged.
Analogy: Like a flywheel - hard to start spinning, but once engaged gains momentum and resists stopping or redirecting.
Strengths
Deep immersion, sustained endurance, thorough processing, patient accumulation of understanding.
Tradeoffs
Gets stuck in loops, difficult to redirect, fragmented when not engaged, slow to initiate.
Learning Style
Classical sequential instruction with positive reinforcement. Step-by-step with encouragement and support.
