Is it important that you visually show every second you count??

You shouldn't "make up" a count just because you didn't start counting right away. If someone is watching you when you start your count at 2 or 3 and you only swing your arm 8 times before calling the 10-seconds violation, that "someone" is going to think you either can't count or don't know the rule.
