Start memorizing positions. Develop "strategic preceedence" and understand that long games involving calculation are just the same as bullet games requiring intuition, but shorter games require faster thinking and good positional understanding.

Play lots of fast games, but study where you went wrong each time you lose. Yes, I agree a bit, playing 5 min or less games, might as well play Ms. Pac Man. But if you don't care about getting better at real chess and have fun with the fast games, then so be it.

Story of my life, my advice just don't play bullet or blitz. It's basically a waste of time. That's coming from someone who has wasted a lot of time trying to solve the same problem.
