When I am racing, my mind and body are working so quickly and so well together, I must be sure not to think, or else I will definitely make a mistake.

– Denny from The Art of Racing in the Rain

Just as quote from the last book I read.

It made me think of all the times you do something mindlessly and/or repetitively that you can do quickly and without mistake…but then, when you realize you’re doing it, you slow down for fear of making a mistake.

Try typing “k”, “l”, “f” repeatedly and you’ll notice you vary speeds as you start to think.
(Sorry, I was trying to think of an example where the above occurs).

Sometimes it’s best to do things without thinking. I find public speaking is better for stuff like this. Thinking too much gives me hesitation and tongue twisting…but simply blurting out thoughts comes out much more naturally…tho I do tend to say stupid things >_<

It is better to remain silent and be thought a fool than open your mouth and remove all doubt.

– Lisa Simpson

And then I, like Homer, would reply:

Takes one to know one.
