time...... you will get better with time.
also, work on a rhythm. One diver I know used a counting method to help him get better. He would breathe in slowly counting 1, 2, 3. Then hold and out 1, 2, 3. He would do this for the whole dive. After several dives he found himself doing it by natural reflex. He said it improved his air consumption by double. I have tried this for the first few minutes of a dive, especially if I feel like I am breathing too fast. It does help.
