When one spends as much time as I do standing around in a room wondering why I came in there, you realize that forgetting part of something you haven’t played in a while is a small thing…

Problem one: It’s great to be able to self-diagnose your problem areas. Care in naming them because the mind is powerful. I always slow down on curves so, personally, my key thought to get through with success would be to approach the transition from A part to B part as a start/finish line during a multi-lap race. I would think of maintaining the average best manageable lap speed though that transition on a straightaway and con serving fuel to finish not blistering the tires as well.
Golfers do something similar called a ‘swing thought’. It’s usually one word like straightaway, in this case, so you can think it as you approach your speed bump without much effort.
I used to think of a smoothly flowing creek when my melodies got too choppy, but it lead to many bathroom breaks. Choose carefully.

The more doorframes you pass through on the journey the higher the chance of forgetting the purpose!

I do that too Dave, I guess they will be telling us to grow up shortly and start acting our age eh? I don’t know about you but this website and all the content on it keeps me feeling young.
Every time I go to the Doc for a check up she asks me how I feel, I tell her I feel great I play banjo. You should see the reaction I get from that statement

I actually think that the door frame argument has some basis in or brains associating it with a change but hey hoo I read too much. I notice that If I go from the living room out to the Garage for a Job to do in the Garden Cabin I am flummoxed half way through!
Yes I have to go for medicals myself due to the Military Injuries and often impress/dismay them . It quite bizarre actually if you go downhearted you get told to lighten up If I go full of life it gets viewed odd!
Ehmm that E mail was not from a dismayed fan! It dragged in too many elements of his life and friends for that-Just unpleasant really-Take care now!
