Deliberate practice is practice + an evaluation feedback loop. If you aren't analyzing how you are doing and using that to feed back into your practice you are just practicing. The use of a coach\teacher\oracle as the evaluator is important because of the DK effect, higher skill people generally are better at evaluating a performance making the feedback loop better.

So in general: practice activity, evaluate performance, come up with drill to improve weaknesses identified during evaluation, do drill, repeat.
