compulsion softener: 5, 4, 3, 2, 1

Here's a simple technique I've enjoyed. It's a way to soften compulsiveness & urgency. It's especially helpful if you're feeling scattered or you're pinballing between activities.
Before you make your next move, count down from 5:
5...4...3...2...1
Proceed.
See whether adding these small pauses improves your mindfulness & sense of presence.
