Do other people ever have the experience of simulating yourself doing something in your head, and then doing it in real life exactly how you imagined it? - eviltoast

I’m thinking about sports as an example. I used to do fencing, and sometimes we would learn a new technique or I would imagine one to do, and I would imagine myself doing it, then it was almost like autopilot where my body would do it just how I imagined, like it was easy. It didn’t happen very often but when it did it felt really cool.

    This often means I flub whatever it is when it goes right unexpectedly because the temporary shock confuses me just long enough to fail to capitalise on the success.
