    I find it interesting that what the author arrives at is the OODA loop.

    The final form became: understand → act → inspect → clarify → adjust → act again

    But he says that "understand" isn't really fitting (or something like that), so we are at: act → inspect → clarify → adjust → act again

    That can be understood as "observe, orient, adjust, act" - but with other words.

    That is the method to use when you are IN the sh*t rather than removed from it and making some theoretical plan.

    I thoroughly enjoyed the read <3
