This is the nail on the head, and I have tried to slow down and play less tables. I am trying to ingrain several new habits, one being, looking at the stack sizes, pot size and preflop actions before reacting.

You may want to change your play up a little bit too. For instance, you don't always have to c-bet when in a heads-up pot. Check behind sometimes, then rep the turn card. You will most likely face fewer check-raises, and fewer check-raise attempts if you don't always throw out the obligatory c-bet.
This is something I have been trying, str8 out of NLHE T&P. I have also been trying to not blindly raise as often preflop. Trying to mix up my bets, with limp/calls, raises out of position and 3 betting, just to hide my hands strenght more. If there is an aggro at my table that raises alot of c bets, I will throw out some 3 bet bluffs, as well as some better hands when the board seems to have missed his range.

Most importantly, pay more attention to how your opp's play certain hands. (this is related to turning off your HuD). How do they play monsters, draws, and what constitutes a monster for them. For a lot of players a monster will be TPWK. It will allow you to comfortably felt (or laydown) a wider range of hands if you know what certain actions mean from your opps as opposed to just knowing that they play a certain amount of hands with an aggression factor of X.
This is something I have to learn, puting them on ranges, watching for betting information and just playing their hands instead of mine.

thanks.
