remember to turn off bracketing* go on to next shot.
My nemesis is forgetting to turn off special modes.

I've been working to train myself to notice the info in/on EVF, LCD about Modes. I also have the advantage of MySets, which were foolishly (for usefulness, as opposed to marketing) dropped in favor of Custom Settings on the Mode dial. I try to get myself to automatically press the Fn button to turn my special settings off, whether I expect to use them on the next shot or not.

It's helped a lot. Still a few extra "stacks", but far fewer than before.

I was doing some non-critical stuff for web, and had the dimensions set to 1024 
wide. Then I forgot, and shot an entire one-time concert that one of our 
foreign homestay students was playing in.

This is pure foolishness. I ALWAYS shoot Raw. I may very occasionally shoot Raw + JPEG of one sort or another, but it doesn't matter if I forget to turn the JPEGs off. You can even throw the Raws away later, but you ensure always having 'em if needed.
