Instill and teach your swimmers to have a change mindset. They're going to fail. It will happen. How can we mentally and physically prepare them for that reality, and give them tools they need to do well. 
Constantly evaluate what swimmers are doing in the water and provide opportunities to recognize, adjust, and create new habits that lead to time and swimming success.
Create personal connection to inspire. Connection to swimmer to allow them to feel safe to say when they don't understand.
A good coach fosters a change mindset and provides the culture and environment that reinforces it.
