For long lists you need many stops. A journey links several rooms, or a walk through a town, into one long route.
- Plan the route on paper first: house, then the street, then the school...
- Mark every fifth stop with something special, like a mailbox, so you always know where you are.
- Walk it in your head, forward and backward, before you use it.
- Use the same direction every time.
Key idea
A journey is only useful once it is automatic. Learn the route like a peg list before you hang anything on it.
