Set up your Claude account on purpose instead of by default. Most people sign up the way they sign up for anything. Email, password, click through, start typing. Every one of those clicks is a decision that sticks, quietly, until you notice it later. The wrong plan for how you work. A privacy setting you never opened while a client name sat in the chat. Seven short lessons. Each one is a decision you make on purpose.

Course 1 set up your account. This one teaches Claude your business. A new chat starts with nothing. It does not know your pricing, your policies, or how you write, so you explain it again, every chat, every day. Small enough to ignore each time, which is why it never gets fixed. A Project holds that context permanently. Every chat inside it starts already briefed. Ten lessons: seven procedures you run today, plus a finished Project, a troubleshooting guide, and the prompt vault.

Courses 1 and 2 set up your account and taught Claude your business. This one keeps it working on your busiest day. Claude has limits. You cannot change them. You can change what they cost you. The cutoffs feel random because what triggers them is invisible, not because your plan is broken or you did something wrong. Name the cause and most of them you can see coming, and most you can work around. Ten lessons, one problem each, plus the prompt vault.
