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.
Yeah, thats like the whole point of being able to plan. To conceptualize a potential action or series of actions in your mind and execute on them to make it reality. Most of the time real world variables are slightly different to mental abstractions but sometimes they are close enough for things to go just as planned.
