I think I've already busted all three of those rules so I gotta have some type of security blanket and I think my NACO approach book will do the job!
I really wouldn't sweat it too much. The dang plane is so slow it's almost impossible to get behind. I remember it felt like an eternity waiting for the LOC to come off the wall and it was the same for the G/S. You'll feel a little out of your element on the first day of flying but after that it's about as basic as it gets. Good luck.
