Seriously, on a daily basis I’ll either bump my head or various other body parts, drop stuff and then drop it again, stumble over something and combinations of all of that.

Send help.

Edit: thank for the suggestions, I will start by focussing on what I’m actually doing at the time and try to be more active - I work from home and sit a lot.

    So a lot of people that I know that are pretty clumsy are those people that are always in a rush or moving too quickly. They always have something else on their mind other than being in the present.

    So some tips are to just be more observant. I know that’s an easy thing to say, and in practice it’s much more difficult, but just check your surroundings and pre-plan movements in your head. If you see something that you could bump your head into, make a mental note that you need to give it more space than you’re thinking. If you’re always dropping something, then make a plan to put it into place where it won’t fall. Like grabbing your phone and putting it in your pocket or your purse.

    I think linear thinking helps reduce clumsiness. To get into mindset of following steps a, b, and c when performing a task could help. That being said, I am no expert and we all are clumsy from time to time.
