Rampidbyter Rampid byter: A byte of my .Net developing life.

Been thinking about it. I am going to set a new challenge for myself to keep myself motivated to finish up the certification processes I started back in December. Taking into account my current work and rehabilitation period I’m going to set a goal that on June 1^st, my birthday as well, that I’m going to take three Microsoft certification exams. I’m either going to take the MCAD upgrade to MCPD Web, MCAD upgrade to MCPD Desktop, MCTS SQL Server 2005, or the final exam in line to finish getting my MCSD. I failed the MCSD architecture exam by 99 points, and it was a horrible smack in the face. Considering that I’ve been using 2.0 Framework for the past few years I still think I did pretty well considering all the questions mainly related to 1.1 Framework.

Anyway, in a few days, when June schedules are available, I’m going to register for three exams in one day. Extreme maybe but I want to make sure that I’m working towards something. I’ve been doing so much more learning for this upcoming robot project, am planning to re-accustom myself to Auto-cad to allow myself the ability to model 3-d projects. I used to be able to do the same with I-deas, but I haven’t been able to use that software since Windows 2000 went out of style.

I’m also hatching a plan to spend one hour a day hanging around at the local library. I figure I’ll pick up a book and read more books through the months. Going to the library seems like a good idea, and I haven’t been to the library in some time. I just need to kick out of these stale habitual routines that have been sitting on my life. I don’t so much want to go out and do more things, but I’d like to get more done. I do not feel like I accomplish many of the goals I’ve been setting forth to accomplish. Kind of like I’m one of those people that only gets half done. You know the type, thinks big, starts strong, and then doesn’t carry through. I’m starting to feel that on several projects. I need to double my efforts to not concentrate on so many things at once, and really drill down to get done what’s important.
