A good coach sees the habit you’ve had so long you don’t notice it anymore. Let them point.

Long-standing habits become invisible from inside, because your sense of what you are doing is built out of the same habits. You cannot see your own stance, your own filler word, the thing you always do just before it goes wrong. An outside observer sees it in ten minutes, which is most of what a good coach is for.

When someone names one, resist explaining why you do it. Just look at it, on video if you can. The first reaction is usually disagreement, and the second, a day later, is usually recognition.
