Does this sound like the set of challenges you might be facing?

  • Halfway through doing the thing I suddenly doubt myself and try to take over the controls mid-motion, and that little hitch of second-guessing is the exact thing that breaks it
  • The people I coach leave fired up with a plan, but the first ordinary snag throws them and the whole thing quietly dies
  • I practice on my own and only ever find out afterward that the whole thing was wrong, with no idea where I went off the rails
  • Someone comes to me with "it’s a disaster, he doesn’t respect me," and I just take their version at face value and start fixing
  • I can do this thing fluently when no one’s watching, but the moment it matters I start micromanaging every step
