Years ago, my then-partner and I walked into a grocery store to get sun screen. I narrated my logic for where it would be in the store as we walked to it immediately. She said something to the effect of she would never be able to make that series of deductions so quickly.
She wasn’t saying that I was super smart or that she wasn’t as smart as me. She simply meant that I processed that particular task very efficiently.
I hate shopping at grocery stores and spent years optimizing the experience to be as quick and efficient as possible. It’s like a super power that only works on this singular task.
