I type on a keyboard with only my two middle fingers. This was likely more efficient for my tiny hands at five years old than methods urged by the typing CD-ROMs we had at that time. However as I grew more proportional to a standard keyboard, this early typing style has persisted. I have no idea where to even begin changing this now as it’s been deeply ingrained by decades of habit. Anybody have experience with changing a muscle memory based habit like this?
I wrote a metaphor with Plants and Habits.
I tried 10 finger typing and learned it bit by bit. Its like putting a pot with a plant in your imagination/brain. When you actively participate on trying to 10 fingee typing against how you usually do, you learn. Its the same as watering your plant.
But what happens when you overwater youe plant? The plant will die and so will your habit.
Do bit by bit similar how you would do to a plant.
Also, dont have too many Plants/Habist in your room, because you will become overwhelmed.
After 10 finger typing for 3 Months, I added Vim as a habit or learning task.
vimtutor was a lot of fun back in the day, ngl
