Made excess contributions to Roth IRA due to miscommunication

Contributed $6,000 in 2021, $4,000 in 2022, $6,000 in 2023, and $6,000 in 2024 to Roth IRA, exceeding limits

What I wish I knew
"To verify contribution limits before making contributions"
If I could tell you one thing
"Double-check contribution limits before making contributions to avoid excess contributions"
