I know, it sounds like I’m just being really profound. Like I’m a ninja, or perhaps a little green dude with large ears and a propensity to fight with light sabers. But, no, actually this has everything to do with music.
Slow down your practicing (using a metronome of course) and make sure that you can play the part you’re working on without having to think about it too hard. When it becomes second nature, THEN you can speed up.
The more consistently you practice purposefully and slowly, the faster you’ll get faster. Therefore:
Slower equals faster.
May the metronome be with you, always.
