How to use "Fumbling" in context?
Fumbling is the general term given to the process by which an individual loses control of a downwards directed bodily movement and instead unsuccessfully attempts to move their hand or arm upwards. This is often the result of being unable to focus on the movement in hand, due to distraction from another task.
Fumbling can have a range of negative consequences on a person's life, including decreased productivity and increased stress. It can also lead to accidents and embarrassing moments, as seen in many comedy sketches and YouTube videos.
Fumbling is typically a result of a combination of cognitive and motor deficits.
