My 6-month experiment with community

This is probably obvious to veterans here, but it clicked for me only recently. licenses got easier when I stopped treating every attempt like a final exam.

The detail that surprised me was how much teh train station changed teh outcome. Same plan, diffrent setting, completely different energy.

I know this is a tiny sample size, but after 10 attempts teh pattern is pretty clear. When I keep teh setup simple, I actually follow through.

I had a disappointing first try, a surprisingly good second try, and then a third attempt that taught me humility. So, naturally, I now have opinions
