Clumsiness: Everything You Need To Know About

Defining a Clumsy Person

• A clumsy person moves or handles things in a careless, awkward way, often so that things are knocked over or broken.

Strategies to Manage Clumsiness

• Slow things down: Think about the times when you fall or spill.
• Stay organized: Having stuff all over the place gives you more of an opportunity to trip over something.
• Pay attention to your environment.
• Get your vision checked out.
• Try exercises that improve your balance.
• Don't be hard on yourself.

• Dropping things, tripping a lot, and stumbling are all examples of clumsiness.
• Clumsy people usually aren't too good at sports or dancing.
• Most people are a little clumsy when they're teenagers — growing so fast makes it hard to be sure of yourself physically.

• Physically awkward or clumsy behavior can arise from a variety of causes, or from nothing at all.
• It may indicate anxiety or a problem with the ability to move around, but it's not always an indication of a more serious issue.
• Clumsy is generally a physical act of ineptitude, of maladroitness, and indicates a propensity to drop things, to fall down or to otherwise be awkward in their movements.
• Stupid on the other hand is a lesser capacity of intellect than is commonly had and shows a lack of common sense or intelligence.
