If you have something broken, google for how to fix it. Write-ups and videos are available which will help a lot. Pick up tools at garage sales or thrift shops. Just try to fix things. Maybe you won't be able to sometimes, but you will learn a little bit each time you try. Learn to look at things, and figure out why they are built the way they are. What does that lever do? What is that thing-a-ma-bob? Also, ask handy friends or neighbors for ideas. Each thing you (try to) fix will make you better at it. It is a lifetime process. |

If you don't want to improve, don't try, and you won't improve. Read the book "the brain that changes itself" by Norman Doidge, MD, if you want to see how adaptable the human brain is. This was for me a fascinating read. |

I can't remember whether it was that book or the following book that got into severe balance issues. Read them both. Your library could well already have them. I bought them both after reading them. |
