The first step is to insure that you have increased your regular typing speed (wpm or words per minute) by doing the regular keyboard speed tests. Keep doing these until your average speed is in the 200 range or higher.

By doing this you will also increase your reading speed which also helps increases your programming speed. Your mind is the fastest thing you have, it is the translating of what you are thinking or seeing to typing that slows one down. This is why there has been work on trying to use your brain waves as an output device so you can bypass having to type what you are thinking or reading.
