Hey, I like your habit of improving shortcut to shortcut! For IntelliJ Idea, I found a plugin called Key Promoter X. Once installed, it tells you the shortcut for every action you triggered with your mouse which you could have done faster with that shortcut. It also makes statistics on which commands you miss the shortcuts for often. (But beware, Key Promoter can be annoying!) My recent baby is 'Navigating between test and test subject': Ctrl+Shift+T or ⇧⌘T

What else? Maybe 'Make invisible files visible' in MacOS' Finder? Cmd+Shift+.

Danke, Victor! I've installed the plugin, and will be "getting better" tomorrow!

To others: be sure to take a look at this if you're using a JetBrains IDE (mine is RubyMine).
