Backing up a trailer
Nothing easy about that at all, seemingly or not. It's outright difficult for the novice.
Plugging anything in blindly. No clue why but it's a frustratingly hard task for some reason.

That's my Kryptonite. I've gotten to the point that when new neighbors move in the neighborhood and we introduce ourselves, the first thing I do when I go inside is write down their names and addresses to help me not look like a fool later on.
It actually works------------sometimes.

Cracking eggs without getting shell in the liquid and peeling hard boiled eggs.

Crack them on a flat surface, not on the rim of the bowl or pan.

Older the egg, the easier the peel- also, peeling under a stream of water helps.

Thank you
Unfortunately, while slightly less often, I still manage to get shells in the liquid with that method.

Hulk Smash is no way to go through life, lol.
But, here’s a thing I learned recently that helps when getting shell in the egg- use a piece of the bigger shell to fish the shell bits out- it actually attracts it instead of repelling like when you try to fish it with your finger or a spoon.

Assembling furniture
I’m still not good at it, but I’ve had to improve because my family loves buying crap on Amazon that needs sssembly
Key is to have good hand tools. I have a screwdriver that works like a wrench

Edging the lawn with my weedeater. Been doing it for like 30 years and I feel like I get worse at it every week

Simple trick from Jacques Pepin. Take an egg in one hand with the big end up and use a message board push-pin to puncture a tiny hole in the shell.
Boil them till done and rinse under cold water----crack the shells all over and peel under running water. Works like a charm.

Hold the bottom of the wheel and turn it the direction you want the trailer to go.
I still remember being about 11 or 12 years old behind the wheel of old Lowell Vines’ late 60s Chevy C10 with 3 on the tree old and struggling to back up a hay trailer to his barn until he taught me this trick.
As for simple things I struggle with, it’s plumbing. I’m no plumber, but I know how to do basic things like installing a faucet, toilet, or replace a leaky section of pipe under the sink. But no matter what, when I’m done, there will inevitably be a slow drip somedamnedwhere.
