Hello everyone, I was wondering if anyone else here has been working with the workbook? I have actually completed the vast majority of it, except for a few tasks that require long-term continuation over several weeks or 90 days—basically those habit-building exercises that take time. But everything that could be done right away, I finished.

What I really like about this specific workbook is how it blurs the line between theory and practice. It is great that all the techniques are described right on the first pages, making it easy to look back and refresh your memory. The book itself was just so comprehensive that I couldn't remember everything on the first read. I am definitely going to use many of these techniques, though I'm not sure if I'll use all of them.

I especially liked Appendix B, which outlines all the techniques and groups them by specific cases, like discipline for example.

If anyone is up for a discussion on this, please feel free to join in! Also, to brag a little bit, I have attached a video showing how heavily scribbled on the whole book is. I approached it with exceptional diligence,, making sure to do it properly for my own sake. So yes, my exercises are fully done—and the book is even stained with coffee in a few places!

I also wanted to upload a video, but the file size is over 90 MB, and the platform won't accept such a large video file. However, I am sharing a Google Drive link instead, where you can watch it in Full HD and see how heavily scribbled on the entire workbook is. Highly recommended, and best regards!
