I've recently been improving my typing.
![A screenshot of a typing test.]({{site.url}}/assets/images/daily-emails/typing.png)
My speed is usually good, but my accuracy is not where I'd like it to be (it's usually around 95%, and I'd like it to be nearer 99%).
It may seem counterintuitive, but I need to slow down to get faster.
But not focusing on the speed and prioritising accuracy, I'll still get faster as I'm not mistyping as many keys.
It's the same when I run.
My first few kilometres are slower as I get into the run, find my pace, focus on breathing, etc.
## Here's the thing
The same can also be said for automation and automated testing.
They require some time investment initially but will save time as a project evolves and becomes more complex.
