# For When That Escape Key Is Hard To Reach
2+
3+
Using Vim to its full potential requires using just about every key on the
4+
keyboard. Of all those keys, the escape key is particularly important. It's
5+
how you get back to normal node.
6+
7+
If you find the escape key hard to reach or your laptop vendor decided you
8+
don't need it anymore, what's the alternative?
9+
10+
There is a built-in alternative:
11+
12+
```
13+
Ctrl-[
14+
```
15+
16+
> Note: If your `<Esc>` key is hard to hit on your keyboard, train yourself to
17+
> use `CTRL-[`.
18+
19+
See `:help Ctrl-[` for more details.
