Increase typing speed
focus on accuracy
Past 50wpm it seem to be really about accuracy. Need to be at 96% accuracy or above to get past 60wpm, my current plateau.
Try to type at half your current speed. Type like a thousand words without making a mistake. Speed it up a bit and repeat.
keyboard shortcuts
Option + Backspace to delete an entire word.
- slow down and focus on accuracy
- Think in words not in letters (I've started to realise that last week)
