I some times give myself a day or two to really "get" the lesson, just don't overdue them either.

When I did the lessons, at first I thought "Gee, these lessons are so deep
that I should spend a week on each one!" Then I realized that I didn't want
to wait seven years to accomplish the path at that level. So, I just did each
day's lesson as it came, to whatever capacity I could , given my life
circumstances.

I think that's a better way. ACIM is not a path designed for us to be hard
on ourselves! The lessons repeat. The course says only about ten things. :-)
Oops, did I spoil it for you? I feel I got the result from going through the
lessons. But I also lead a group during that time. I recommend that.
Its a great generosity to others. It also forces you to be up with the material.
Keeps you in integrity. Keeps you on the path, moving toward the love and
joy that you really are in truth but have forgotten.

Please remember, if you're feeling difficulty on the course, its just a sign
of something to let go of and a call to joy.

Take it at the pace that is comfortable with you. I have had the books for some time now and decided that I wanted to wait for a group to start up in my area. I am glad I did-as I enjoy working through the information with people of like mind.
