Yes, there is something to be said for youth!
Brain works better, think they're gonna live forever, never get
discouraged! No family and home and bills! Geez those were the days!
I'm 43, in debt for $10000 in router equip, not to mention all
thetime I spend onrouters and not wiht my family! Ahhhhh, but such is
the life of an over the hill CCIE wannabe!
Age does have its rewards, though. I just can't think of any right
now!
Well, there is the story about the young bull and the old bull.
Do you know that one?

Here, here! Good luck. By reading your posts I believe you will
pass. Last time I predicted that I was right! (Hank Leung).

I use a counsellor (my wife).
Look back over your notes, read some doccos on something you enjoy
- build some simple labs from the documentation (that work) and
poke around with how it's working - build your confidence with how
much you actually understand.
Think about it, most people in the industry don't know what BGP's
for let alone how to append an AS path!!
(I'm only barely coping myself - 3 days to go!)

I've been studying my butt off (and believe me thats a lot of
studying!) for the last 6 weeks and am getting burned out and
discouraged. I have three weeks to my 2nd attempt and feel like I
don't know jack sh*&!!!!
I took a few days off, but am still feeling overwhelmed at what I
need to know.
What do you all do when you start to feel this way?
Thanks!
