In South Carolina, thars two kinds fer ice cream, sugar koans and waffle koans.
Actually, it's a philosophical riddle that budhist will use to assist in their meditation and clearing their mind, like "what is the sound of one hand clapping?"
Me personally, when I get into a 'discussion' with a coach, or if I miss a couple of close ones, I will concentrate on my mechanics just as you suggested in your original post. However, I usually focus on something (excuse the paradox) critical, but less meaningful. Am I the right distance from the call? Am I in a good set position? I find that if I concentrate on these things, my training will kick in. If I'm concentrating on what a jerk I think the coach is, I will definitely miss something.
By the way rhsc, I will also miss the call if I am concentrating on the good looking mom in the stands. (Okay, at my age, it's getting to be the good looking grandmas.)
