It is amazing how new projects can influence your mood and your interests. I am excited at the projects and I have on the pipeline and the difference those projects can have in many lives, specially my personal and professional future. As part of that I have to master new technolgies which I should start shortly. But, at the same time I am developing and using all my skillset from business, to soft skills that make for a very exciting phase in my life For the time being I have started preparing to become a certified Project Management Professional, I am taking a course online and my PMBOK guide should arrive shortly.
I have to admit, I have been surprised about how much of what I learned in my undergraduate and graduate studies I have been able to recall. Now, I just have to remember that I am just starting the course and that it will become more challenging as it progresses. I am plan to complete my certification in the next two months. It is a tight schedule but I am confident that I will achive it.
If you want to pursue a career in IT you need to be able to adapt and learn or pick up new skills to stay relevant. One of IT's biggest challenges as a career is adapting to the idea that you might be working with a technolgy today and look back in just a couple of years and look at that as ancient history. The only difference is that "ancient history" can be just 18-24 months ago. I you think you can get accustomed to that, then IT might be the career just for you.
