I'm all about the little victories in life. This thread is for us to post smaller more bite sized goals or areas of improvement to work on during the COVID-19 quarantine/stay-at-home period. I know many of us are home from work or school and have extra time to devote to cubing. What are you focusing on during your time at home?

My goals:
I will finish learning the PLL alg set during the Colorado stay at home order. So far I am drilling & consistently using all my algs in solves except Nb.
I am practicing cross a lot and getting much better at planning during inspection, this has improved my times the most over the last month
I am practicing solving F2L from multiple angles
get 3x3 ao100 of 27s

I know this is not what you guys are expecting from me but I kinda stopped cubing this week, I've been busy growing my youtube channel and improving my editing skills to post better videos everytime xD
 
It is possible and with 40-45 STM you can go with 10 TPS down to sub-8 and further. And its my method I like it really much because back in my beginning days I thought of the same concept and tried to solve the cube like this.
 
My main goal is to become color neutral on 3x3. If you would like to see my progress (not much so far): here is the thread: speedsolving.com/threads/my-quest-to-become-color-neutral.76910/#post-1361433

Shameless self promotion incoming
