How does one walk? To walk one needs to move their foot forward, to move their foot they have to lift it up, to lift a foot up they first have to place it down, and that requires moving it forward. It feels circular!

Learning is circular. You do it step by step, one bite at a time: you learn a fact, you understand its connection to other facts you know, you gain a little knowledge, you repeat.
