The packet pushers network has a blog for Open Source Networking Projects.
As you move along your NetDevOps journey this will be a good resource.
The Packet Pushers network also has a Heavy networking podcast that is worth listening to. There is a menu on the top right "Listen" that lists all of the Packet Pusher podcasts.
This is from Greg Ferro of the Packet Pushers podcasting network. I think it really applies to studying for the DevNet Associate exam.
Herewith is every self help book without having to read them all, plus a short note from me:
- Take one small step. (Small changes not a big change to start)
- Change your mental maps. (Change your outlook / mind / plan)
- Struggle is good. Scary is good. (Fear is part of the process, it’s normal)
- Instant judgment is bad. (Evaluate and re-evaluate)
- Remember the end of your life. (You are running out of time, every day)
- Be playful. (You have to be fun to be around to get fun)
- Be useful to others. (Then they can be grateful to you)
- Perfectionism = procrastination. (Good enough is near enough, perfect is the enemy of good enough)
- Sleep, exercise, eat, chill out. Repeat. (Work to live, don’t live to work) *Write it all down. (Makes you think and re-think better)
- You can’t get it all from reading. (At some point, you must act or miss out)
That’s it. All the life advice you will ever need. In a blog post.
