I used to type 750 words every morning as a daily journaling practice. Kept the habit for 5+ years. Every day, wake up, type 750 words of whatever's on your mind, move on. Takes about 6 minutes. Over time my typing became fast and reliable enough that it just doesn't need to be any faster. It's as fast as I can think. Shortcuts slow me down because they don't fit naturally. They cause a hiccup in the brain. A little pause when you think of the right shortcut to use. So I never invested in shortcuts. But take my ZSH history away and it's like chopping off an arm. Maybe that counts as having a bazillion shortcuts.
