Q shared the challenge of LSAT training and shared 3 quotes:
1) From Bruce Lee: I fear not the man who has practiced 10,000 kicks once, but I fear the man who has practiced one kick 10,000 times
2) Chains of habit are too light to be felt until they are too heavy to be broken 3) How do you eat an elephant? One bite at a time

Q is now taking one step at a time to study and his kids are walking with him everyday.

If you are facing an insurmountable challenge or something difficult, let me know. I will walk with you.
