I like this sentence "the act of accomplishing it is more than I am willing to invest". We've got limited time, so choose wisely. Thank you for another wonderful post!
You mentioned you had to ask your partner to take you to buy more eggs. Related to your topic, do you drive? I don't drive and I feel I won't ever be able to. Somehow I can't cope with all details one needs to pay attention to while in traffic and ends up being an overwhelming mess. At same time, seems like everybody's driving these days and it's become so automatic to them, like walking...quite discouraging for me.
"A thing worth doing is worth doing well", we were told when very young. People absorb these dubious 'wisdoms'. I called bullshit. Plenty of things are worth doing badly, casually, haphazardly even. How much an achievement means to people, and how much effort to put into what, is something everyone needs to decide for themselves. Having a range of interests operating at varying skill levels, and into which one has put thoughtfully chosen degrees of effort, is a good thing.
The "Drawing on the Right Side of the Brain" method is perfect for a psychopathic brain structure, because it makes an extremely logical account of how to open up the areas of the brain that have atrophied from not being used. Well, luckily - neuroplasticity is a thing. Perfect practice makes perfect.
Read that book and you will learn how to draw logically while putting together a ongoing training routine that lets you build muscle memory in drawing shapes, and figuring out proportion, perspective, composition, tones, colors.
Make no mistake:
ANYONE who has learned how to write can learn how to draw, because it boils down to exactly the same thing - using a writing device to mark shapes on a piece of paper.

Very relatable. Luckily, I know of a book that will help you prove that neuroscientist wrong:

It was a good thing you had your SO there, so you would step back and take a look at the process.
