Slowing down..

Helllo chess.com users! I was wondering what could I do to slow down my chess? I play a couple of OTB games every week and I seem to play very fast, often just looking at one or two candidate moves. How can I slow down, look at all the important tactics and only then decide to make a move?

I'm thinking thought process is important but often times I see some tactics but I just overlook one simple move and I am lost. Is my thought process wrong? If so how can I make this solid? Lots of thanks in advance (:

I am learning patients myself and look at everything. In the past games that I have played. I have missed moves a lot not having a piece protected and missing a great move because of trying to hurry. Eager, to move. I have to listen to that small voice in me telling me to slow down, that voice is CHRIST JESUS HOLY SPIRIT. As a child we don't always listen to our parents. but when we do listen things go much smoother. Well that is the way the CREATOR wants us to think. HE did create us put our parents together so we could be born. HE IS DAD GOD ALMIGHTY. iN THE BIBLE IT IS Ps 89;26. 

love you all my brothers and sisters have a great day 

Play on line chess with one move in three days or so as setting if you want to slow down . Do not play live chess where the games have to be finished in 5 or 10 minutes etc ...

Hope the sermon helps you, but once you have decided on the move you want to make, make sure you have checked out all the possible captures and checks on the board. Or if you want to do it proper, check them first, then decide on a move. That should slow you down.

Sermons and prayers? Nah doesn't work for me. Does anyone else have some tips?

When you play people higher rated than yourself cheap tricks wont work you must always consider you oppent options and your own this take time and your clock.After awhile you will realise that you have been starting to slow down in  all of your games this might be an issuse if you play alot of blitz though
