In one sentence, describe what the following article is about: Skill automatically transferred from your right hand to your left hand somewhat in all those previous years of your life so it won't be extremely hard to start doing things with your left hand at first. Since skill also automatically transfers from one task to another task somewhat, you will gain the skill faster to do a specific task with your left hand if you do all tasks with your left hand than if you do just that task with your left hand. Be patient. Some people say the older you are, the harder it is to change to left-handedness but that's misleading. The illusion that changing handedness is easier at a younger age comes from the fact that the higher the skill you have with your right hand, the lower the patience you have for a given amount of skill in your left hand. In fact, the older you are, the shorter it takes for your left hand to gain a given absolute amount of skill. The easiest, but most important thing you can do to strengthen your left hand is to use it to complete all of the actions and activities you would normally do with your right hand.  Make an effort to brush your teeth holding the toothbrush in your left hand. You can also comb your hair, pick up your coffee cup, butter your bread and open doors with your left hand, among many other daily activities. Also try throwing darts (in a safe environment), playing pool or throwing and catching a softball with your left hand If you're finding it hard to remember, and keep using your right hand accidentally, try bandaging the fingers of your right hand together. This will prevent you from being able to use it and force you to use your left hand instead. One of the best ways to strengthen your left arm and hand, and correct any strength imbalances between your dominant and non-dominant sides, is to lift weights.  Hold a dumbbell in your left hand and do exercises such as bicep curls, kickbacks, hammer curls and dumbbell presses. Start with a low weight, then move up to heavier weights as your strength improves. Learning how to juggle using three and then four balls is a great way to strengthen your left hand and arm, while also providing you with an impressive party trick! One great exercise for improving ambidexterity and strengthening your non-dominant hand is to take two table tennis rackets and two balls and to bounce them simultaneously with both hands.  Once you master this, you can progress to using smaller rackets, or even wide-ended hammers. In addition to improving your left-hand usage, this is a fantastic whole brain exercise! Many people who play musical instruments (which require the use of both hands) are already somewhat ambidextrous. As a result, picking up a musical instrument -- such as the piano or flute -- and practicing everyday will help you to strengthen your left hand. Swimming is another ambidextrous activity which has been proven to help with balancing the brain hemispheres, allowing you to use you non-dominant hand more fluidly. Hit the swimming pool and do a few lengths to strengthen the left side of your body and get a great cardio workout at the same time! Washing Dishes regularly with your left hand is a safe and simple method to improve on the dexterity of your non-dominant hand.This can be both fun and useful in the long run, apart from cleaning the dishes. Doing that will also practice up the general skill of automatically transferring skill from an action to its mirror image so that the next task you start doing with your left hand that you used to do with your right hand, you will be a tiny bit more skilled at doing it with your left hand when you first start than you would have been if you had never done it with either hand before. It may take many years for your left hand to catch up to the skill of your right hand but probably less than 2 months for your left hand to become very nearly as skilled as the right hand. Once your left hand becomes skilled enough to do the job easily, there's no need to be impatient about your left hand becoming more skilled just because your right hand is even more skilled. You can skip the steps 2-7 if you want to hurry up and become ambidextrous and can handle the boredom of doing them slowly at first. Using your dominant right hand has become so ingrained in your brain that you will use it automatically, without thinking. This can be a problem when you are attempting to become left handed. To overcome this problem, try to come up with a system to remind yourself to use your left hand whenever you do something.  For example, write the word "left" on the back of your left hand and the word "right" on the back of your right hand. This will act as a visual reminder every time you go to pick up a pen or complete some other activity. You could also try wearing your watch on the right wrist instead of the left. This will really help your subconscious to register that you are trying to change sides. Another thing you can do is place sticky notes on things like the phone, the refrigerator and the door handles. These will remind you to use your left hand whenever you reach out to touch them.
Summary: Do everything with your left hand. Lift weights with your left hand. Learn how to juggle. Practice bouncing balls. Pick up a musical instrument. Go swimming. Wash dishes with your left hand. Start doing finer motor tasks such as mirror writing, playing pool, cutting cords out of shrimp, and throwing darts with your non-dominant hand now that you practiced it up with simple tasks. Remember to use your left hand at all times.

Problem: Article: Even if you’re a seasoned swimmer, it’s essential that you wear a life vest while wakeboarding. Put one on and secure the straps before getting in the water. Familiarize yourself with the hand signals you’ll use to communicate with the driver of the boat before you get in the water. For instance, thumbs up means speed up, while thumbs down means slow down. A slash across the neck means stop the boat/cut the motor. Set the bindings on the wakeboard so they feel comfortable and secure. If they’re too loose, you won’t be able to maintain your balance. If they’re too tight, your feet will hurt, taking the fun out of the sport. Keep 1 hand on the handle of the tow rope as you scoot off the boat into the water. Take a few moments to get comfortable as the boat begins to move away from you. Once the rope is taut, you can use it to maintain your balance while floating in the water. It’s important to maintain a good grip on the tow rope handle so it doesn’t fly out of your hands. That being said, keep your arms relaxed and your knees bent while floating in the water. Never hook or loop the handle around or over any part of your body, as that will make it more difficult to let go of. Starting out, the wakeboard should be positioned on it’s edge so that the bottom of the board is perpendicular to the surface of the water. Make sure the edge of the board is slightly above the water. If you try to keep the board flat underneath you, you won’t be able to balance when the boat accelerates. Before you go wakeboarding, figure out which foot to put forward by having someone gently push you from behind. The foot you step forward with will be the one you put in front on the wakeboard. Once you’re in the water with the wakeboard, place 1 arm on each side of your front knee. Keep your arms bent and the handle close to your chest.
Summary:
Put on a life vest. Adjust the bindings on the wakeboard. Get in the water. Hold the handle securely. Keep the board on it’s edge in the water. Position 1 arm on either side of your front knee.
