No te precipites.

No te apures.

I agree with Mariana. I have always heard (from the same countries) "No te apures" or "¡Apúrate!"

Hola, Melisa.

I've never heard the first one (my Spanish is a Mexican, Colombian, Guatemalan mix), but "No te apures" is common along with "No tengas prisa."

Precipitarse = to rush, like when you do something without thinking or hastily

Apurarse = To hurry (up)

The mining is very different for both in Spanish (Spain) . No te preocupes= don't bother No te precipites = usually taking decisions means : take it easy.
