I guess the problem for me is an over active mind, I find that it rarely slows down and even at times when I am writing my brain gets ahead of me and I start to write the next word in the sentence before completing the current one...

I have always had a highly active mind and my mother loves recounting a story from my childhood. When I was in the 1st grade my teacher believed that I wasn't paying attention in class as I was constantly doodling or looking at pictures in books. My mother asked her to do a simple thing and when she felt I wasn't paying attention she was to ask me a question related to what it was that she'd been doing or speaking about.

Naturally of course this didn't take long to happen and I got asked the question and answered it correctly. I have no recollection of the entire thing but that is something my mother remembers very fondly because it showed that I was paying attention in class even if the lessons seemed to bore me.

Ouch my mind often gets over active and I'll rush through my words stumbling because Im typing or talking too darn fast.

How do you slow it down?
