Keep your attention on your HANDS,("mind in your hands") as Ben Doyle would say.

If you are a Swinger with a fairly fast beat to your swing, this may take a while to learn. Some people have a "downswing blackout," making it difficult to monitor things.

Some FEEL as if the wrist is not cocked at the TOP, or END, when it actually is, but is cocked only in the Left Wrist, as it ideally should be. You may have to develop a new feeling for this part of your swing.

Keep a light #3 Pressure Point, and monitor that along with the HANDS.

Start with short little shots, and work up to big shots.

You may find it helpful to do "eyes closed" rehearsal swings.

Also, try starting at Address, (Flat Right/mid-body hands) and move into the Bent Right Wrist during Start Up. I believe Mr. Kelley says it is easier to move into a position than to hold a position.
