I try do everything that I can without looking at what I am doing. We have cruise controls, radio, cell phones, remote controls, and a thousand other mechanical devices that operate the same way each time we touch them. Virtually every tool or piece of equipment that I handle I purposefully learn to use without having to visually monitor my own actions. I did the drop and reload drill with my 40 last night and felt like I'd done it a million times before. It was second nature. OTOH I have not taken a defensive training course and am sure I don't realize how much I don't know.
