1. Look ahead. During inspection plan out the cross by looking around your puzzle.
2. Become color neutral. Which cross looks easiest to get done? Do that one instead. Soon you’ll get better at this it takes time.
3. Learn 4LLL. This is CFOP last layer but instead of 57 OLL and 21 PLL you just need 6 PLL and 10 OLL. First get the cross then solve the corners, then do CPLL and EPLL.

I recommend starting these when you are sub 1:15 with beginners method. I got sub 1:15 at 10yo. Now I’m 13 and sub 15.
