I thought I was a fast cleaner until my mother in law timed me loading the dishwasher

I always bragged about knocking out the whole kitchen in 20 minutes flat. Then over Thanksgiving my mother in law stood there with her phone timer while I loaded her dishwasher in Portland, and it took me 34 minutes because I kept rearranging bowls that were already fine. She said I was cleaning the same dish twice without noticing. Now I load the top rack first, close it, and walk away. How do you all stop yourself from redoing stuff that is already done?
