She smacked it, observing me with a fixed half-smile on her lips and terrified eyes.

He taught me to be aggressive around the goal and take an active part in play instead of waiting for things to happen. He showed me how I kept putting myself off-balance by placing my weight on my left leg instead of on my stick side. He taught me how to steer shots off into the corner instead of letting them rebound in front of me. That old guy made a good goalie out of me.

Having a finite list of problems is much better than having an illogical feeling that everything is wrong.
