What are my purchasing options?
You now have the ability to get a taste of the course AT NO CHARGE by getting a FREE Sneak Peek! This gives you access to all of Module 4 which includes Abby’s favorite exercise called “Discipline Your Eyes” and a timed reading exercise.
If you like the way the course is structured and you want more, you have three purchasing options: 7 Day Access, 90 Day Access or 365 Day Access. The 7 Day Access gives you full access to ALL the course content for 7 days. For some, it can be a challenge to finish all 9 modules in 7 days but some people do it! Ideally, it’s best to get the course for either 90 Days or 365 Days, providing you make time to take a module or two at a time and then practice what you learn in between. These options also give you time to go back and review what you’ve learned and to do the exercises again, if you like.
Most people purchase this course because there is a pressing need, such as a large reading workload they need help with OR considering going back to school OR someone who is already in school and needs help managing all the reading. By giving you these different registration options, there’s a time frame version for everyone!
