Review every game. In this game you couldhave won his queen early and make your life way easier, avoiding time pressure. With playing more, you will improve and see such things.
You thought 1 minute about castling. Why??
Then a5 instead of the logical a6, blundering the bishop in a great position.
You have to be able to avoid that kind of stuff basically "without thinking" - which can only wok after you trained a lot and know how to handle basic positions.
You can only play moves faster if you already know they are good moves. So practice more endgames, then those will be quicker. Understand what to develop in the opening, minor pieces to good safe squares, castle and create an escape square. Rooks to open and semi open file. Play habitual moves unless it hangs something. Then you get familiar playable positions that you reached faster.
You played alright in that game, but just walked into a couple of pins at the end. Try not to launch attacks before fully developing and just because a trade is offered doesnt mean it needs to be accepted if you have other options.
On this site, you only have two losses in games with over 30 moves. It's hard to say that your time management, in terms of using too much time, is a problem.
In terms of leaving more time towards the end of a game, posts #2 and #3 offer great advice. I'd also consider playing a couple of daily games at a time with a move every 3 days time control. Use those games to work on your thinking process and to practice your openings. As you get better, it should take you less time to find better moves.
When reviewing your games, pinpoint those moments where you had a big think. Post #7 found a few but the one that I would take a closer look at is move 19 where it took nearly 5 minutes to play 19...h6. You burned through more than 50% of your remaining time on what didn't seem to be a key moment in the game.
Hi @CLIPS960
Something else that can be useful in addition to what people have said above is giving yourself a 'move fast' cut off timer in your games. For example, in 15min rapid, you could say that okay from 3minutes and under, I'm switching focus to moving faster rather than playing "better" or "thinking deeper". At some stage, every player does this on their own. Instinct kicks in rather than deep calculation. Give yourself this marker and see how you go in future games
Hope this helps,

Can someone tell me how to get better at playing moves faster? even in a 15|10 format I often end up with under a minute left and have to try to move fast, the time pressure often leads to me blundering and losing , even when my position is better. Take this game for example where I got low on time, made some bad moves from pressure and lost.
