The answer is not going to be to play more with time controls but playing long time controls and spending time (maybe years) thinking deeper in lots and lots of different positions until you can calculate well then you will be able to speed it up as you have a lot more knowledge of the positions you get into.
This sounds like good advice. I guess I need to learn my openings well enough to play them quicker and quicker. Reminds me of learning to play something complicated on a musical instrument: you don't start at full speed, your learn it at a slow tempo first and then speed it up.
