Today was a good day !

Today, I finally got to see Cisco as I went there for a meeting - it was pretty cool! Went for a Collaboration demo on all their latest stuff. Lunch was pretty banging as well!

Also came home actually at 5:30 which was nice!

And got a call about a role with CC - funny that Os has worked there and came here!

Anyway I digress a bit.

So i thought about learning Python again from scratch while also learning EH - and I want to get both under my belt and be proficient by next year - I also want to have manageable goals to keep track on them, so i need to make some...

It is also getting warmer and I am happy about that :)

Just had my practice meeting

And it was ok - but it didn't go as well as I thought - but it made me realise what I need to focus on and how I do that.

1. I need to think of bigger picture scenarios instead of thinking of products first off - that is what I did and it didn't go anywhere. 
2. I need to ask qualifying questions - I didn't do that as much as was needed, which would help me make a solution up. I also need to draw information out from the client.
3. Use the whiteboard to help create qualifying questions. 
4. The products themselves come last - services and related are necessary as well as knowing terminology and driving the conversation and giving the sense that I know what I am talking about.

It was hard, but I did learn from it. And I need to learn how to make my own style to ask these questions.

Knowing product knowledge is one thing - getting the client on board is another and that is what I need to know how to do. Today helped me understand the gap that Os and Rich have with me. 

I am so happy! New Cert study coming up :)

I got the ok from work to study for the CCNA Sec and they have given me resources - plus, I already have some materials and gathered what I feel i will use and need when studying.

Got a folder prepped and everything. I need to find something else out but otherwise, I think it will be good!

:) I am very happy about that - ^^.
