Today I watched some videos and took notes on Newton's first and second laws. I spent 15 minutes on this.

Next time I will pick up where I left off on the second law https://www.khanacademy.org/science/physics/forces-newtons-laws/newtons-laws-of-motion/v/more-on-newtons-second-law

I Watched 20 minutes of video and took notes on newtons second and third laws.

Next time normal force

I spent just over an hour and a half Watching videos and taking notes on forces.

Next I will read more about friction https://www.khanacademy.org/science/physics/forces-newtons-laws/inclined-planes-friction/a/what-is-friction

I spent about 2 hours today watching videos, reading, taking notes, and practicing Forces.

The first 1.5 hours are nice and easy, the last 30 minutes were a little more difficult, and after that, it's hard to find the motivation. I think with more practice this will get easier, but maybe I should rethink how much time I try to commit at a single time. I was originally trying to do 2.5 hours at a time but maybe I should focus more on 1.5.

Next time I will do the quiz for this section.
