Being quite of shortcuts geek here, it's very essential to know how to change those pre-defined shortcuts into more suitable shortcut. And to our surprise, Mac provides it for us.
There is one shortcut that makes me feel sick whenever I tried to use it, i.e. Select Next Tab on Safari. To perform this action, you will need at least two hands; ] is the troublesome shortcut I mentioned above.
I remember last time I've written about how to create keyboard shortcut which very much resembles the trick I'd like to talk about this time.
Let's see how to do it..
Open Keyboard & Mouse Preferences Pane
Go to your Apple Menu bar, click on Preferences and then choose Keyboard & Mouse (Menu bar ▸ Preferences ▸ Keyboard & Mouse). Then, click on the tab named Keyboard Shortcuts.
Note Down the Name of the Shortcut
For example, here I want to change the shortcut for Safari - Select Next Tab. Therefore, the Menu Title will be Select Next Tab. You can also see that the shortcut is initially }.
Change Existing Shortcut
Now, you should go back to your Keyboard & Mouse Preferences Pane and click on the [+] button near left-corner of the pane. Choosing Application, Filling the Menu Title, Assigning Keyboard Shortcut, and Confirming the action consecutively will lead you to the end of your journey to change keyboard shortcut. Not to forget relaunching your application (for this case, Safari) for the change to take effect.
Result
This is the result.. Hope this trick will help you increase your productivity.

Jains of Cochin
Kochi is an enchanted city intricately blending folklore with fact. Lured by the siren song of its spice-scented shores, it has been an El Dorado for innumerable travellers from distant lands. However, the secret of its wonder and allure is that while its roots lie deep in a fabled past, it has kept its finger on the pulse of today.
Kochi, earlier known as Cochin is built on several tiny peninsulas and islands. It is the commercial and industrial capital of Kerala, and has one of the finest natural harbours in the eastern world.
Nowhere in the world would you find a conglomeration of cultures and religions living side by side in total harmony. Cochin boasts of the oldest Synagogue in the Common Wealth Countries, the oldest church in India built by the Europeans, the first European township in India moreover Cochin port is one of the largest in India. Here, Vasco da Gama succeeded where Columbus failed, and found the fabled sea route to the Indies. Kochi's enormous, cantilevered Chinese fishing nets are a legacy bequeathed to the city by one of the very early visitors to the Malabar Coast, from the court of Kublai Khan.
Cochin referred, as the Venice of the east is the most cosmopolitan city in the state. Kerala is a land of temples, in fact once the only religion followed in this part of the world was Jainism. The many architectural remains throughout the state support this fact. The Cochin Shwetambar Murthipujak Jain Temple located in Mattancherry, of which the main idol of Shri Dharamnath (the 15th Tirthankar) is 1500 years old. The idol belongs to the era of Samprati Maharaja who is reputed to have installed millions of Jin Murthi in recorded History. The Jain population in Cochin though is minuscule it has played a significant part in shaping not only the city's trade and commerce, but contributed greatly towards an overall development in almost every field of human activity.
