Given that in the canonical material we have now, those strong in the Force just pick it up like it’s no thing, the rpg models for it are mostly busted. Ive come to think that the pushing and leaping and mind bending are just tricks you can do. Almost foolish, almost distractions. A bit of fluff.

The real power of the Force and the Jedi was in foresight. Seeing possible futures and recognizing where and when the minimal amount of influence can cause the maximum amount of benifit. for want of a nail, the shoe was lost, for want of a shoe, the horse was lost… with the Jedi, there’s somebody at hand with a hammer and spare nail… Or somebody teasing it out with a little Jedi trick, to cause the series of losses that eventually lead the Galaxy towards greater peace and harmony.

So, if the Force is your ally, you pick up the tricks quick, but the wisdom and foresight and the care you need to use the Force safely are what demands training.

I’d give young force sensitive people a lot of power, a lot of dangerous power.
