I've decided to start teaching myself to be ambidextrous.

I'm very right-hand dominant, so it's definitely awkward trying to doing the same sort of tasks with my left hand.

But the point is the experiment.

To see if it can be done.

And how it changes my brain to do so.

Devotional polytheist living a monastic lifestyle centered on curiosity, simplicity, and joy.  Exploring the intersection of technology and spirituality.

what’s the initial step? used to try brushing my teeth lefty but think i just forgot to continue

yeah you’re right, consistency is everything. it’s easy because you know how to do these things but hard for the same reason. good luck!

I think that's the key.  Just keep doing it.  I plan on deliberately practicing for a bit each day, different tasks I'd normally do with my right hand, so start to build up that dexterity and hand strength.  Probably won't ever be perfectly ambidextrous, but I'm hoping to get close to it!
