A watched pot never boils, but an unwatched pot can go from boiling to overflowing pretty quickly.
When you put a pot of water on, put a wooden spoon over the top of the pot. If it starts to boil up too high, the spoon will pop the bubbles and keep it from boiling over as quickly, meaning you have more time to get back and turn the heat down. Note that this could warp a wooden spoon, so do it with a utensil you don't want as much.
