To the last point, I wouldn’t trust anyone at your departing airport who tells you your bag will go to the destination. Almost lost a bag that way. Thankfully, my uncertainty made me ask again at the layover airport “just in case”…lol

It’s not complicated, they know there is first time and non frequent flyers who get lost easily. Here is a form of routine.
-
Do as much as possible in advance if you can self-check-in online and just go to the bag drop, do-it
-
Try to drop your bag and clear security as quickly as possible, you’ll get some “peace of mind” once done, as these are the parts where you can loose a lot of time. To do so check information panel at the airport entrance.
-
Before clearing security, remove shoes, belt, put laptop/phone on the tray bins. While it’s not requested, remove your jewels/piercing they might trigger a metal detector.
-
Another pro-tip for security, while in theory it changes nothing, but dress properly, give the image of someone who travels internationally and can afford business class.
-
You fly business, so you most likely have access to lounge, it’s way better than the standard waiting room, so enjoy. If you’re a bit stress a glass of wine in the lounge way help you to relax and sleep better during the long flight
-
roughly 30 minutes before departure, try to be at your gate, usually, I try to locate the gate before the rest.
-
You have a connection, when dropping the bag, ask whether it comes directly to your final destination. I expect that you’ll clear custom in München (assuming you fly from the EU), this is not a big deal

Some airports are removing this requirement now, but there are usually signs
