    Hey Brian, welcome to the TAC community!

    It’s a legit and good question TAC teaches progress rather than perfection. It’s OK that you don’t master any of the lessons or skills as you’re going through the 30 days to play or even once you start taking the daily challenges.

    Tony researched it quite a bit when he was developing the program and the backbone is that if you can put in a minimum of 10 minutes per day, you will progress . So it’s suggested that you put in the minimum of 10 minutes and Mark a lesson complete that doesn’t mean you can’t continue to practice that lesson. It just means that you shouldn’t be bound by it and trying to reach perfection. It’s actually counterproductive if you practice something too much.

    So you’ve put in seven days, so the questions are, Do you have more knowledge than you did seven days ago, and have you progressed and you’re playing capability during those seven days? If the answer is yes, then you were doing everything perfectly and just continue to do that and to move forward. Don’t get caught up on the perfection. Keep moving forward. What you will find is that once you get into the daily challenges, they have quarterly check-ins, which are basically working on a group of lessons that you’ve already taken in the past and taking notes of how much you’ve improved since the last time you took that particular weeks worth of lessons. During those weeks, it is recommended or suggested that you actually tape each of your lessons, so that you have a reference point to go back to and compare how much you’ve improved or things that come easier.
