When you need to
get from one side of your screen to the other, there's no easier way to travel
than by using your mouse (or similar pointing device). When you're in the heat
of battle (ya know, typing a document), it's not always convenient to have your
hands leave the keyboard. So try this, the next time you need to jump between
words and/or sentences: depress CTRL while tapping any cursor key. If you want
to select the text while you're 'jumping,' simply depress SHIFT along with CTRL.
It's a depressing trick that's actually uplifting in a way.
