The Robinson's family motto "Keep Moving Forward" is the simplest phrase to whatever motivation you would want to ask from inventors and scientists. I've been waiting for its DVD release at my favorite store Astroplus and after watching it with my wife and 2-year old princess at home, it made me grin because Cornelius’ mindset echoed in my being, to keep moving forward…
The day I woke up late in the morning, drove my wife to office, attended my daughter’s school parents’ orientation, the 40th year wedding anniversary of my parents, at exactly 1 PM, there I was in a small room taking my first Cisco venture, CCNA edition 2. And after six years of yearning, finally, it became official.
It’s a big accomplishment for me but it’s also a great challenge. I’ve always wanted to concentrate in Network Administration but my career took me to not so distant field, its twin brother, Systems Administration. Because of the nature of my company, though my job requires me to do almost everything, I don’t have permission to manage our routers and switches, I can only check if the port is up from the Intranet page, but that’s the realism I’ve long accepted…
However, after this year’s hardware refresh, the “Super Admin” team just left me two unused 4600 routers and a lot of 2950 switches and who could ask for more. That’s all I need. With your acquired knowledge but could not apply it because of a limited permission or no application at all sometimes hold you to not believing in yourself, in your skills and capabilities but you don’t have to. Someday, it will come to you, the responsibility will be yours and who do you have to ask when nobody else has the knowledge, it’s all you.
The Information Technology field is not just what you see in the server room or in the computer your working on or any computer equipment you’re ask to operate or seen in your workplace. It’s full of theories, full of techniques, has different approaches and all you have to do is to gather as many information as you can, store it, upgrade it and sooner or later you will apply it.
I’m having a successful career because my wife helps me a lot in managing my time. I’m proud of her getting her MCP with a perfect score. She’s on her way for her MCTS…
And hopefully, our second baby princess, next year…
