This resonates with my experiences.
I once broke an ankle badly and were on crutches + stabilizer boot for three months. I could mostly only use one hand if standing (other was holding crutches).
It took me weeks to notice all the things I didn’t do any longer because it was painful and/or difficult. Like just making a cup of coffee in the morning (and I LOVE coffee!).
Activities were aborted before making any conscious decision to not do them. I recognized the same pattern in my father some years later when he was temporarily in a wheelchair.
- medstrom 11mo agoThat's almost concerning. I wonder if it'd be realistic to 1. put up a whiteboard somewhere 2. observe with some regularity what your routines are right now (non-judgmentally) 3. write them down (descriptively, not prescriptively) 4. update over time Then you'd get the chance to notice your routines changing.
