That may be what it is: focus. Focus, and taking your time. That was another idea I got from MJF's story. I can't recall if it was from his memoir or from the recent documentary, the suggestion that I do not focus solely on the distant object toward which I'm heading––the sofa at the other end of the room or the supermarket entrance at the far end of the parking lot––but instead focus on where I am, doing what's necessary to go safely from where I am to the next "where I am." MJK said (or was told by his personal trainer) that total focus on a remote destination encourages speed, even when not intending to speed, and speed for so many of us is the enemy. Prudent caution (without being so cautious, we become timid) results in reaching that remote destination without a mishap. That's all focus, in one way or another. It works for me.
