2) Probably just play more blitz. I think on chess.com blitz ratings are lower than longer time controls in general? Not completely sure on that. Maybe by 100-200 points. Not 400+, though. You definitely haven't played enough blitz to get used to that time control.
This seems like a really good idea, will give it a shot. Thanks!
