It took me a while to figure it out but I've found what helps me the most is keeping a physical journal and simplifying the WAJ form. Previously I was writing out every reason my answer was wrong, which was good for my learning but I didn't find that helpful in identifying patterns in my wrong answers. Now for each entry I have three sections: question type, error, and next time. I try to keep error and next time to 3 or less bullet points each. Then I have a running list in my notes app called "WAJ takeaways" sorted by question type and I just focus on the strategies I've written down for say my 5 top priorities each week. Hope that is helpful!
I think an option where you can customize the hours per day for different days of the week would be great. For example I work full time during the week, so can only do 1 or 2 hours max on the weekdays but would like to do 6 on the weekends. If there was a way to customize that so I don't always fall behind of the 4-6hr/day plan that would be really helpful!
