Default Escaping \"The Moment\" and taking time during important decisions

Kristy Gazes talked about this being a problem in her poker decision-making in the Full Tilt Wynn tournament broadcast. I've heard other players mention it as well.

I've definitely had this problem. I get into the moment and do something like call an all in reraise near the bubble w/ AQo facing 1.4:1 pot odds against a tight opponent and a small, but workable stack. I find when I am playing good poker I'm very in the moment, but the flip side of being in the moment often means I will make these types of important decisions too quickly.

What have other people done to successfully combat this problem? What advice to others have to stop this leak?
