Two days are left before my TSHOOT exam. I feel confident about it since I have a first taste of it. I read feedback given by test takers that it is a a nice experience. I ought to be ready for both scenarios. If I succeed, then I know that all my limiting beliefs about CCNP were false. Then, I’ll know that I was prisoner of my false beliefs. And if I fail, then I should remind myself about all the courageous people in the IT world who spent a lot of money and time in the pursuit of their certs. Either way, I’ll learn something, and that’s my own choice. I made my choice to enhance my career, no matter what the sacrifices are. “Courage is resistance to fear, mastery of fear - not absence of fear” - Mark Twain
