A study plan helps you stay consistent, motivated, and accountable. Here's how to build yours:

1. Choose Your Goal: What certification are you aiming for? (e.g., Security+, A+, Azure)
2. Set a Target Date: Give yourself 4–12 weeks depending on topic complexity and time availability.
3. Allocate Weekly Time: Example: 6 hours/week → 2 hours over 3 days.
4. Use a Structured Format: Define Weekly goals and Daily focus (e.g., Monday: Read Chapter 1; Wednesday: Lab 1).
