Certainly! Here's how to approach Task Focus within the Primal Games framework, with a focus purely on enhancing task-oriented outcomes and minimizing relational dynamics.

Conceptual Overview of Banishing Venus

• Focus: The goal of Task Focus is to reduce the emphasis on emotional and relational aspects to prioritize efficiency, directness, and clear, objective outcomes. This involves creating a training environment that focuses on individual performance and precise execution.

Practical Application in the Primal Games

Transition from "Where is the Handler?" to "Give & Take"

• Original Game Dynamics: "Where is the Handler?" emphasizes the dog’s attention and responsiveness to the handler, focusing on relational dynamics.
• Shift in Focus: Transitioning to "Give & Take" simplifies the interaction by focusing on clear, direct exchanges such as fetching, dropping, and giving. This reduces the relational focus and emphasizes straightforward, functional commands. Attention for Access to the opportunity for a Bite.

Go Do Dog Stuff… or Not

• Dismiss the dog and chill, taking up the next step as a separate session.
• Transition Seamlessly into the new game.
• Slip the esssence of Where is the Handler?, Attention for Access, into the This, Wait… Next game.
• Some combo of the above

Transition from "Where is the Trigger?" to "This, Wait… Next!"

• Original Game Dynamics: "Where is the Trigger?" involves anticipation and responsive engagement. This builds intent and expectancy to Achieve. The Trigger used does not have to be the trigger for the task at hand. Where is the Trigger is great skill for amping up the game and creating an expectant desire to Achieve.
• Shift in Focus: Moving to "This, Wait… Next!" centers on executing predefined tasks in sequence, prioritizing precision and clear, task-oriented actions over relational engagement. This also holds back the dog, delivering clear intent. Where is the Trigger is built in to This, Wait… Next! You’ll have to add it in the Next phase of next now.

Enhancements to Training Focus with Task Focus

• Reduce Relational Emphasis: Focus the training on individual performance rather than elaborate cooperative dynamics. Boom-Pow! Yes!
• Minimize Aesthetic Considerations: Shift the focus from the grace and beauty of execution to the effectiveness and precision of actions. This could mean prioritizing speed, accuracy, or compliance over the style or form of the execution.
• Promote a More Functional Atmosphere: Create a training environment that emphasizes achieving specific results over emotional or relational aspects. This may involve removing distractions and particularly non-relevant valued affordances for action. Those things attract a lot of unwanted Attention and impact Awareness.
