Make safety a habit.

When we've done things hundreds of times, we get complacent. Complacency is one of the biggest things that flies in the face of safety. We must be vigilant.

It is also 100% true that a less-than-stellarly maintained tool (a less-than sharp drill bit, knife, whatever) is FAR less safe than a sharp one.

You're alot more likely to complete the job safely if you're not putting alot of load on the tool.
