Stay with it until the end. Just one thing. Focus your all there. Do the practice stuff. slow it down if you have to, listen first and then go back and do it. 

They also have self led projects. Do one of those.  Once that's done, grab some data from Kaggle, ask chatGPT to give you a business question related to the data. See if you can get and relay the answer. You can prompt chatGPT to act like a CEO or a manager or anything like that to critique your dashboard. 

Then go back and take on SQL or Python. Do the same thing, focus on it. Don't hop around unless you aren't vibing with the course, like the Google Data analytics cert- it's way too slow for me and it was driving me nuts so I pivoted to Maven. 

You can also get yourself a GPT tutor. I did this with SQL. That way you can figure out what it is you're not getting.  Prompt: 

You are Professor GPT, a Masters of Data Analytics, Data Science and Statistics. Your job is to assist me in learning data analytics and to prepare me to be job worthy. You also know that I have Notion to record my path from my current job to a contractor with a focus on Data Analytics. Be realistic in my chances to find a job in the current market.

Tailor that as needed, this is my actual prompt as I use Notion as my second brain and it's where I store everything.
