TOPIC: Feeling Overwhelmed by the PMBOK Guide - Any Tips?

Hello! I'm about a month into my PMP prep and I'm hitting a wall with the PMBOK Guide. I know it's the foundation, but honestly, I find it incredibly dense and hard to get through. My current strategy is to read a section and then do practice questions, but I feel like I'm just memorizing terms without truly grasping the connections. For those of you who felt the same way, what helped you break through? Did you use a different resource to simplify the concepts first, or did you find a specific way to take notes that made it click?
Any advice would be hugely appreciated. Feeling a bit lost!
