THIS!
This is absolutely the right way to use checklists! You use the checklist every time but also learn the checklist by heart and reinforce it every time. That way you know the drill if you run into an emergency where you have to react so fast you don't have time to reach for the checklist. Your SOPs should tell you to check the checklist as soon as possible afterward anyway so you know the risk if you missed a step.
