At this point, you should set your `$GOPATH` environment variable, which
represents the path to your workspace. By default, `$GOPATH` is set to
`~/go`. Be sure to set your `$GOPATH` every time you open a new terminal

It is recommended to add `$GOPATH/bin` to your `PATH` at this point, like
so:
`~/go`. You wll also need to add `$GOPATH/bin` to your `PATH`. This ensures
that your shell will be able to detect the binaries you install.
```bash
export GOPATH=~/projects/lightning

This will ensure that your shell will be able to detect the binaries that
were just installed.
We recommend placing the above in your .bashrc or in a setup
script so that you can avoid typing this every time you open a new terminal
window.
