This shouldn't be too long. No goal setting this year. No laying out of
plans and schemes. Just a reflection on my own achievements, and what that
might mean to you.
I discovered Cisco certification 19 months ago, shortly after I lost my job
as technology manager at a small brokerage firm. (downsized by the new
owners) At that time I thought that maybe it would take me five years to get
my CCIE. A year ago, when I laid out my plan for the year 2000, and posted
it here, I saw that it might be possible to have at least passed the CCIE
written by year end.
Today, my CCIE lab is scheduled, and I believe I will have attained that
goal by end of year 2001. This is amazing to me.
So I just want to say, on this eve of the REAL new millenium, to all of you
on this list, to all of you single moms and high school kids and career
changers and overweight middle aged guys, and non native English speakers,
you CAN do it! It may be a journey of a thousand miles, but it can be done,
as the saying goes, one step at a time.
To all of you whose names I have seen in my in-box these past months, my
best wishes to you all. Wherever you are on the road - the shoreline, Delhi,
Katmandu, Base Camp, or nearly at Everest's summit - you CAN do it. I look
forward to seeing you on the road, on the trail, on the climb, at the top.
May you achieve those things which fulfill you in this coming new year!
Chuck
