Spotting Patterns soft
Using algebraic and shape structure to solve problems is the advanced maths form of the universal pattern-recognition habit
- Connecting New & Old Ideas soft
  Spotting patterns across domains is an extension of the habit of connecting new ideas to existing ones
  - Thinking Before Starting hard
    Making connections between new and old ideas requires the habit of activating prior knowledge first
    - Persisting When It's Hard hard
      Activating prior knowledge requires the foundational habit of persistent engagement with new material
