⚡ The Short Version

Listen back to your own recording as if you were proofreading it. Put the sheet music in front of you, follow along, and hunt for missing notes, extra notes, and cut notes that are too long or too short. Do it several times, looking for one layer at a time.
A short note can be too short, and you will know because it vanishes. There is such a thing as cutting the cut right out of existence. If the note loses its clarity or disappears entirely, it has gone past short into gone, and you have to bring it back.
The cure for rushing is a slower metronome, not a faster one. If you jump off your long notes, slow the click down so the error is obvious, and practice placing the next gracenote deliberately late. Practicing late is how you end up on time.
