I have discovered as I grow older that I don't have the same reaction times that I had when I was in my teens and twenties. I've also discovered that I'm not as brave (or maybe as impulsive) as I once was, either. I tend to think through a lot more before taking action. I sometimes even listen to my wife when taking on some new or infrequently performed activity. (That's scary!)
I will occasionally watch a clip on YouTube prior to taking some action of a "mechanical nature". I've collected more specialized tools for these actions instead of using a screw driver and/or hammer for every task.
The short of it is I want to live longer than tomorrow and need to rethink how I'm going to accomplish that goal.
Safety starts in the head; life is in the heart.
