    Not exactly what you want but I heard about people in the military practising things and they learn. “Slow is smooth, and smooth is fast.”

    By doing that it makes you quicker. Sometimes when I’m late and start rushing I end up forgetting things or knocking things over or dropping. So I take a breath and say slow is fast. Also my career history is big on “right first time” doing something twice is a huge waste.

    Also I remember Adam Savage said he got close to death (or was getting close to being rescued from death) then he told himself “Calm people live. Tense people die.” and he managed to free himself.

    Taking a moment might not just save you time or money it might save your life.
