The skill of touch-typing
Above is my most recent wpm(words per minute) score on a new and different keyboard with "bubble" keys. I had learnt touch-typing just before entering college, only because my friend was preparing for an administrative course which required her to have this and I gave her company as a fellow learner with her.
This turned out to be my most cherished method of spending my time till date. I signed into a touch typing website and did all their assignments. I had never thought that this thing would have so many nuances really! How to reach numbers, how to capitalize letters in between sentences, special character, punctuations, its endless! And there is left handed touch typing and right handed touch typing as well now, which is even more awesome (I tried to learn left handed typing for when I am eating but it was too hard and I left it in between)
But yeah, this post is to encourage everyone to try to learn that skill which they have been postponing because of its seemingly useless nature. I'd say to fill up your bucket list of skills with as many as possible (I know everyone has one) because they are the most fun.
And you never know when they may come in handy ;)
