With graduation on the horizon and my degree almost officially in hand, I’ve shifted into focus mode.
Right now, my energy is going into two big areas:
🎯 Preparing for the CompTIA A+ exams
💼 Applying to entry-level IT and project management roles
It’s a lot—but it feels good to be moving forward with clear purpose. Every application I send out is a step toward the career I’ve been working so hard to build. And every study session brings me closer to passing my certifications and proving my technical skills on paper.
Some days are overwhelming. Others are energizing. But all of them matter.
What I’m Learning During This Phase:
- 🧠 Time management is everything – I’m learning to schedule focused blocks for A+ prep while still giving time to resume tailoring and job boards
- 📄 Each job posting is a learning opportunity – I’m refining my resume, cover letters, and confidence with every submission
- 🧘 Balance is key – I’m trying to avoid burnout by mixing in rest, creative projects, and time to reflect
This transition period is where all the work I’ve put in starts to open real-world doors. It’s not about being perfect—it’s about being persistent.
I’ve come this far. I’m not stopping now.
