FAQ

How long does this take?

Most people finish the core steps in one focused session. First-timers should double the estimate and add a break halfway.

Can I adapt this to my situation?

Yes — treat the steps as the skeleton. Keep the verification steps; customize everything else.

How do I maintain the result?

Add the final maintenance step to a calendar. Ten minutes monthly prevents most regressions.
