How it all Begins

So, this is how it all begins...

Realizing that i've wasted what??... 6-7 months of my life(with the crappy excuse that i'm a full time college student...yeah right -.-'' keep going...) until i finally decide to do something about this... Have my CCNA title since November 2010, something that made me really happy, even one of my teachers congratulate me in front of the whole class(ashamed like hell but,felt good), hoping that i could inspire some of my classmates and friends to start getting certifications and realize that a title of engineer is not that much of a big freaking thing; in my country this truth scales a whole new other level.

By that time i was starting my job in customer service in a company that sells networking equipment(mainly structured cabling but, active equipment too(routers,switches,etc...)). Even though i learned a lot, can't say i didn't... i thought my certificate was going down the hole and that in that particular job it was worth nothing, so why waste my time??? well... experience is reaaaally important and where i live it means 75-90% of the reason why someone would hire you...studies...not so much. So 10 months after i quit in order to continue my certifications. 7 months after that, i'm writing the first paragraph of what you're reading heehhehe.

What changed, well, after 3  failed plans of study , realizing that without my parents support i was nothing but a broke kid(ashamed-mama's boy if you'd like)... a chance that probably most of us have until certain point...So why don't we take advantage of it and bust our asses off like our parents did or like some of the most successful guys of this world did... prolly it does pop up into our mind but still, we do nothing... Well pals... THEY WERE DRIVEN BY DESPERATION, THE FEELING OF HAVING NO WHERE TO LIE OR NO ONE TO BACK THEM UP AND THE NECESSITY OF PROVING WRONG EVERYONE THAT LOOKED DOWN ON THEM... Guess what??? Negative feelings and situations can become a positive reinforcement in our lives and they could mean the difference between failure and success... if we look at it the right way of course, not if we try to choke on drugs or donuts.

I'm starting with some CBT Nuggets of 640-553(CCNA Security) to boost  my mood of study(I'm not a sell out, neither focused on only one vendor, but i've learned a lot and there's way much more to learn from where this knowledge came).

To follow the path of IT you must know that you'll have to be studying from the day you realized you wanted this until the day you die,hopefully for me it'll be a lot of time, still young enough hehehe... There's a lot to give up and one simple thing to earn from it... SUCCESS.

Think a little about the picture attached and...

Cheers!, time to study.
