Remove physical obstacles and other barriers. If something is in the way of the piano, it’s going to make it harder for you to play the piano. If a task is overwhelming for sensory reasons—for example, there’s something about it that is too bright, too noisy, or too icky—find a tool that helps you avoid the unpleasant experience. Use gloves while washing dishes, earplugs for noisy trips, or sunglasses for running errands outside.[*4]
