I once read somewhere 30 years ago to literally sit on your hands when doing stuff like that.
I have followed this advice since, and confused a lot of co-workers over the years when i stop what i'm doing and sit on my hands while i re-read what is on the screen.
humans make mistakes, and sometimes mistakes are really really not what you want. everything that helps is a good thing :)
