Does this sound like the set of challenges you might be facing?

• Noting has become second nature and now I’m curious about the one doing the noticing itself
• I’ve been doing the sessions but then diving straight back into a packed, loud day right afterward
• All day my attention goes straight to what went wrong
• When a study session feels good I walk away assuming I learned everything in it, and when it feels like a slog I assume none of it stuck
• I keep getting derailed by the same thing session after session and never seem to learn from it
