Follow the example
A legal check is wrong when it permits escape from the required mate. Apply the same reasoning to the position in your own round. Take a moment to compare.
Avoid this misunderstanding
The objective is forced mate, not merely checking the king. Take a moment to reassess the position before continuing. Before your first action, say what you are trying to achieve. Then compare the result with the goal.
