Not my whole life but ever since I learned it twenty years ago in the army. "Slow is smooth, smooth is fast". It's a saying that means to learn things carefully, slowly, and methodically. When you are learning like this speed will follow as a natural progression. So if you learn something slowly and smoothly it will translate into being quick and doing it correctly. I have applied this to all sorts of different things in life and it has never failed me.
Your username reminded me of my favorite Sanderson quote.
I still think about it all the time when I'm in a tough spot.
All the knights radiant oath are great too.
Journey before destination.
