OK so Day 1 wasn't bad, and I think I'm getting used to the structure/content. Hopefully we can be more efficient with the next few since there are a total of 32 sections in this course! I know, I do have 180 days from the date of purchase, but I'd like to get this done and line up the next course before my expiration in August 2023.
It seems like a long time, but work and "life in general" can get in the way so try not to procrastinate too much!
