I think Hawkins' LoC is a good model, but the problem is that when you use it with other people, it can devolve into something competitive. You start thinking you're higher or lower than other people, and that becomes a trap. That disconnects you from others, and then the whole thing becomes an egoic pursuit.

The model is useful, however, when you apply it to yourself. It can help you identify what to work on next. But as you improve, it makes sense that you should feel even more connected and tuned in to the people around you, not separated by rungs on a ladder.
