    @oldngrumpy I know it’s not the same but could you try Tai Chi?

    There was something I tried years ago and that was flying lessons. My idea was to gain a pilots license and become a taxi plane pilot in Australia ?? 

    so if I knew I couldn’t fail, and if I wasn’t too old now, I’d do that! ✈️ (Piper Tomahawk if poss)

    Ha ha, I had a similar experience during a school sport lesson where I actually scored a goal in football. I was initially confused as to why no one tried to defend the goal then realised I'd kicked it into my team's goal!!
    Now you mention it. I did that too. You can imagine that for the rest of my time in secondary school everyone avoided having me on their team. Ha.

    Someone threw a rugby ball at me once in PE...I panicked and threw it towards the first person I could see.  Apparently you're not meant to throw it forwards.  :#  :D

    If I knew I couldn't fail I'd want to be an archeologist in Italy and Egypt.
    Suppose I might also have to get over my fear of wormy stuff with that digging...but I can't fail so...sorted!

    I'd like to be good at and passionate about something - anything (that is within my ability and restrictions). I don't seem to have a skill that I am really good at or passionate about. Most people are good at or passionate about something, or if they are lucky, both.

    I'd also like to become a benevolent dictator. Before someone says there's no such thing, in a scenario where failure is impossible then there is such a thing! I'd clear out all the inefficiencies and there would be no arguments - I'd just automatically know what laws to bring into place to make life fair for everyone. :sunglasses:

    I just pop them in the microwave for 2 - 3 minutes :)
