All the checklists in the world will not help if brain is not in gear. What can actually happen is that you make the same wrong logical mistake again as you go through the checklist. In all seriousness the best way is to go away for about ten minutes and then come back. While away do something else to break the illogical train of thought. Then check again!
Of course this is not good advice if your aicraft is in a spin or stalling! The correction should be instant and instinctive.
I used to run a lab with lots of equipment that ran by itself if the whole lot was programmed correctly!
And yes I never made a mistake by rechecking after I went to the pub.
