Unplug your mouse. Seriously. Do it. It might sound like the "kicking and screaming" method but you'll learn to rely on your keyboard even for GUI tools and you'll vastly improve how fast you navigate your computer. You should find yourself more and more in the terminal, obviously, but you may learn also some nice tricks with everything else.
- Solid advice.
- It boggles my mind how few people use hot keys and ALT to navigate menus. Something that has probably been a standard on computers since as long as I have been around (the 70's) ....
