• The difference between actual competence and potential competence is called the “zone of proximal development,” where you can achieve with the help of a more knowledgeable other. Working within this sweet spot can help you optimize your practice.

• The Yerkes–Dodson law shows that performance improves with moderate pressure, reaches a peak, but declines if pressure becomes too high or too low. Try to find the optimal stress and challenge level, which may change over time.
