Focus on What Matters
"Do not try to do everything. Do one thing well."
-Steve Jobs
No AI - this is just me rambling about something I see a lot of students struggling with.
Your attention is your currency. Your inability to focus on what matters is holding you back FAR MORE than your intelligence or your available time.
You're better off spending an hour a day of FOCUSED study on ONE THING than 3h/day where 50% of it is second guessing if you're on the path.
START WITH YOUR BASE OF CERTIFICATIONS
Network+
Security+
And while you're studying for those...ONLY STUDY FOR THOSE
Don't go learning linux
Don't run to tryhackme
Don't drift to tiktok for advice
That distraction is the single greatest thing holding you back
And when that voice creeps in saying, "I wonder if this is going to work?"
Tell it to shut the hell up and get back to work. Assure that voice in your head that it will. Believe it in your core. Trust in the process that has helped hundreds of students do what you're doing right now. And keep going.
Do one thing, do it well, and do it completely.
Then move onto the next thing you're going to do completely. Rinse and repeat until you get to where you want to go.
Let's finish the week strong!
