Sheepdog Tip of the Day, Before Combat tip 290
Ironically, you don't learn to shoot quickly by focusing on "quickly." You learn to shoot quickly by: 1. Minimizing the number of things you do that don't lead directly to firing the shot. 2. Doing all the remaining things as smoothly as possible 3. Staying "in the bubble," completely focused on the process, with no time spent on distractions or irrelevant things and no time lost reacquiring the required focus. All of these things support the development of subconscious shooting, which is by far the most accurate and most pleasurable type of shooting there is.
