Hi Robbie,

I was unable to find any paragraph elements in your HTML - are you referring to the li elements?

<h3>Our Services</h3>
<ul class="services">
  <li>Sample Service 1</li>
  <li>Sample Service 2</li>
  <li>Sample Service 3</li>
  <li>Sample Service 4</li>
  <li>Sample Service 5</li>
</ul>

By default, the ul element has left padding. Setting this to 0 will align the li text with the h3 heading.

.services {
  /* ... */
  padding-left: 0;
}

Hi Robert,

Yes - I was referring to the li padding! Thanks for the correction.
