Open your eyes to everyone involved and everything going on outside your direct control.
But how does that square with the comment above that if you don't get something in 50 hrs of OE you probably won't ever get it? Sure, learning continues far beyond that - but what number is "enough" versus "too much" for OE? I was under the impression from previous comments, for example, that 100 was too much. I understand from your comments than 10 is far too little. What's normal?
