One way to think about it is that there are at least 3 kinds of “things” that one might want as part of their rationality practice:
1. Specific tools, schemas, frameworks for solving particular classes of problem. These are things like Goal Factoring or Double Crux. You will need to practice them (and maybe do practice on the individual sub skills, in order to have facility with them), but the main point of your tools is that you deploy them to solve a particular kind of problem.
2. Discrete training. Many TAPs, with associated practice exercises.
3. Continuous training. Single practices that you can just continue to churn on, for years, and which will continue to pay dividends.
