Question. How do you guys find is the best way to study & focus. Library? Anything you take to help focus?

Focusing is my main problem

I had to give up TV before I started making serious progress in my IT life 7 years ago.

You are refusing to give up something in your life....find what it is. There has to be a tradeoff

I don't watch TV unless it's a sports game, other than that, I don't turn the TV on AT ALL. And as for cutting out porn, let's just say my life changed when I stopped watching that shyt. That shyt was KILLING my ability to learn

co-sign that porn comment. i stopped watching that shyt 4 years ago after learning about that disgusting industry and it definitely helped me become more productive and disciplined. plus it will help increase your sex life since the only way to get some titties in your face would be to step to a girl.

Been a LONG time since I took the N+ but I don't think you need any lab work. Just know the OSI layers back and forth, common ports and what they're used for, subnetting and network topologies.
