Challenge your brain's motor pathways by writing with your non-dominant hand. Start with simple words and gradually work up to sentences - it's surprisingly difficult and fascinating to experience how awkward tasks feel when you're essentially relearning them. This exercise builds new neural connections and gives you empathy for people learning new motor skills.
