Yeah, I know - this was supposed to start on May 3, but you know how it goes. I’m going to start putting notes down as I go through each “chapter” of the book I’m reading, for stuff that I might need to look back at later on.

when you have about 2 hours (pushing it) out of the 16-18 hours of average awake time, undertaking an exam like the ccie is no walk in the park. a job that requires you to be on your toes through the day, and kids that are waiting for you when you get back, only makes it tougher. but, you gotta do what you gotta do. so as a first step, i’ve decided to discipline myself - have everything organized, schedules set, and most importantly, stay on track, and not lose sight of my goal.
