Conquer it. That's all I can think of. That's what I do. If your scared of it just jump of the edge force yourself off, then once you've done it you'll realize that it isn't that bad it's actually fun :D. It looks far down but takes like 1second to hit water :P

Why do I suck at jogging?

stand with one foot on the edge of the pool deck, the other a foot or so back. Lean forward, streamline your arms (point them in an upside down V) and launch yourself forward. try to keep your body straight, because if not you will go to deep down and will take to long to surface (slows you down if you are competitively racing)

1-before diving think of what kind of dive your going to make

5-be careful not to bend your legs

What do I need to do to improve my observational skills underwater?

well start at the side of the pool. First just lean your head forward and just have your head go down first. don't even jump just fall and have your head go in first. Then as you get better and practice more work on jumping and having your arms out in front of you. Your arms should squeeze the sides of your head. Then just keep practcing...
