After 2 years of remote work, I can confidently say that I never want to go back to offices.

Why?

I can organize my day in a way that suits me best.

I can take breaks throughout the day.

I can design my workspace.

No geographical barriers.

No social awkwardness.

No morning commutes.

Do you like remote working? 🤔

Micromanagement can be a drain for everyone involved.

How does micromanagement affect everyone involved?

What are some tips to avoid micromanagement?

You don't need to master every technology to be a DevOps or a Network Automation Engineer.

You need to have fundamentals of:

- OS (Linux)
- Network (CCNA)
- Coding (Python)

Each skill passively helps you learn the skill that comes after it.

The easier you understand OS, the easier a Networks will be.

The easier you understand Networks, the easier Coding will be.

Everything you learn will make Network Automation 100× easier than starting with it.

My 1st Client paid me $30.
My last Client paid me $180.

It's not that much, but it's still progress.

Here are the 5 Biggest differences:

1- I explain the value I provide for the service more effectively.

2- I've gained more experience in Network Automation.

3- I provide better customer service to my clients.

4- I have received more positive reviews.

5- I deliver projects more quickly.

There are 8 months left in 2024. Crazy, right? 

Here's what you need to do:

1. Set a Clear, Measurable goal.

2. Break it down into manageable chunks.
Month by month. Week by week. Day by day.

3. Take action!
Every Single Day. NO EXCUSES.

It’s not about speed. 

It’s about steady progress.

Life shouldn't revolve around building a business. 

Don't get me wrong. 

Building a business is great. 

But it's not everything. 

Don't lose yourself in it. 

Don't forget to enjoy life.

To be human. 

📌  Agree?

Growth comes from within.

Why? 

Because it's not forced. 

It's not fake. 

It's real. 

It's YOU. 

You're not copying someone else. 

You're not pretending. 

You're just being YOU. 

And that's POWERFUL. 

That's attractive. 

People can sense it. 

They're drawn to it. 

They want to be part of it. 

So don't look outside. 

Look inside. 

📌  Agree?

How important is authenticity in the workplace?

What are some effective ways to achieve personal growth?

How can self-improvement benefit my career?
