5 years ago I was wanting to become a Network & Security Engineer so badly. I sacrificed so many things to come this far. Specially my precious youth where I could just enjoy so many other things other than writing a program or configuring a router. But everything I planned 5 years ago were archived successfully.
I got a degree from a good university, have industry experience for more than 2 and half years, I have industry certifications like CCNA, MCSA, CCNA Sec and studying for CCNP and CCSP, also eventually step in to CISSP and looks great huh! What a great technology career.
Now I don’t want any of that. Why??? See, the reason behind I needed to become this person called a professional, because I could live the life that I wanted, I get the attention from the people I loved and I don’t have to struggle so much in my life.
Now what I want is my own company. It could be in IT, could be in Clothing, or could be just another Import/Export company. That’s all in my mind right now. So now I am struggling for the 1st time in my life. I know my IT skills and experience going to help me whatever I do in the future, but all the hard work I have done would it be wasted?
I am in position to start my own business. Yes I am in a great position to start my own thing. Do I have the contacts I needed, yes I do have great contacts. Do I have enough money to get things started, yes I do have money to invest and also I have good investors. Do I have enough experience , probably not, but nothing is perfect in this world.
So if I want to become a company owner should I have to give up my career and step in to whole new world. People say different things, as I always do, should I experience this by myself. Should I still keep reading my articles and studying my CCNP stuff?
Confused for the 1st time in my life!
