Another a pitfall is caring about material (both losing and winning it). In a sense you have to not care about the game, at least not in a traditional way... which is why playing it a lot will give you bad habits.

bullet strategies
play on both parts of the board
use no more than 1 secound
dont blunder
only premove at capture
I've been going through a bit of an addiction to Bullet as it has a compulsive "just one more game" quality about it I find hard to resist but really the more I think about it, the more I reckon it's encouraging all the worst habits that in longer forms of the game you are trying to iron out e.g snatching at the first half decent move is essential in bullet and exactly what you're trying to avoid normally. It's very perverse :-)
... is getting interested in the game. It's not the only reason I lose but it's definitely up there
.
If I could learn to just move and move again and take no notice of what's happening on the board I'd probably do better!
