When I started using Vim many years ago, I mapped the arrow keys to no-op.

This made the biggest difference, more than anything else. It forced me to use hjkl and never the arrow keys.

Everything else is a bonus that comes by itself later.

That's a good start, but then you develop the same anti-pattern like typing jjjjj to go down 5 lines instead of 5j

That's what hardtime solves.
