    Spatial awareness.

    I was in gymnastics as a kid, so built up a strong sense of balance and where my arms and legs are in relation to the stuff around me.

      I was in my 40s until I admitted to my self that spatial awareness simply doesn’t work in my brain. My young friend across the street is excellent and I often have to call him over to assemble something I’ve taken apart. In fact, I’m going to hit him up to help me reassemble a shed. Used, it came with no directions and no way in hell do I figure out how it goes together. And I took it apart!

      In elementary school standard tests I’d excel at every subject except spatial reasoning. I’d try! But no, I have no idea how those shapes rotate to make the shape wanted.
