Can someone recommend ways by which I can begin to see things as they are instead of how I expect them to be?

This trait of mine mostly manifests into me bumping into things all the time, as well as having to resubmit paperwork because of ridiculous type-o’s.

It seems as though my eyes do not see the outside world but give me visions of my inner world instead.

I’m tired of being bruised all the time and having to waste paper because my eyes see what I thought I wrote instead of what I actually wrote.

Both philosophical and practical advice would be helpful.
