1. Memorize the arrangement
2. Play it SLOWLY with your hands TOTALLY RELAXED a thousand times until it is burned into your muscle memory
3. Turn up the tempo gradually until you hit your target speed. Sometime try leapfrogging to a much faster tempo, just to see if you can do it. I call this being a test pilot - seeing how fast you can go before you crash.
4. Once you get it up to performance tempo with no mistakes, then focus on playing with FEELING
