That was a good commentary and good to see examples let-in.

I still don't have enough experience of the track but I am learning to be more fluid and to trust the car more.  As my confidence grows on each session I get over excessive braking into Bobbies which puts the weight on the nose with a risk of the back coming out.  The car then flows through even if I go in faster.  Braking Or Steering = GOOD - Braking AND Steering = BAD

Similarly there are different lines as he explains and they have their merits.  Much of the time it is worth have a slow lap to learn or re-learn the circuit before starting because what you "see" as you enter a bend is often not the best line - you also need to know the best exit or deal with a compound curve.  As it unfolds you can see a better line but you have to remember that on the next circuit.  Last outing I was getting my line wrong at Old Paddock and wasting time.
