2048 is so easy to play, you might get into the habit of tearing through games without even really paying attention to what you're doing. That's not a good idea. Take your time - there's no penalty for thinking your moves through after all. Also, try to predict where new blocks might come in and how you could deploy them. Something like playing chess.
