Personal Style vs Routine

So today I shot a few photos for a good friend. The weather wasn't fantastic, but in the end I came up with a few usable photos. What surprised me today was how little time it took to edit the photos. Usually it takes me quite some time to figure out what'll make the photo look the best that it can. But today I just did stuff without thinking too much. I guess I must be getting used to this. But it also made me realize that I think I need some more techniques when it comes to editing. I'm very satisfied with the end results today, but I'm thinking I need to expand my repertoire of editing.
