Simon estimated chess masters learn between 25,000 and 100,000 of these chunks during their training, and that learning the chunks was a key element in becoming a first-rate chess player. Such players really see chess positions very differently from beginners.

I see chunking like zooming out on a map. If you’re an amateur you’re probably looking at the street view, or maybe a block of a neighbourhood, as you become more experienced, you’re zooming out, as these neighbourhoods seem common, similar to a degree, they become chunks like cities, districts and so on.
More generally, it’s not beginnings and ends that count, but middles. Things and thoughts advance or grow out from the middle, and that’s where you have to get to work, that’s where everything unfolds.

What I loved about Cassavetes was that from what I could tell, his films were also about discovery and self education, and learning more about the world through the making of films. That’s what I’ve been trying to do, so I feel akin in that way.
