I am having a very difficult time to overcome #resistance! I start to study and enjoy what I am studying, but as soon as I take a “short” break, I cannot seem to get back to what I was studying. I start to procrastinate, and no longer can focus.

I will work in forcing myself (self-discipline) to do what I have to do to continue to study. I have goals and a timeline to keep. I get off track when this occurs.

March is the month of to do the things that I have to do, whether I want to or not.

I am trying to study (update on 03/02/2024) for the ITIL v4 exam, and I am getting a lot of resistance. I was supposed to start on Monday, here today is Wednesday, and I have not started. Today, I will work only on getting started to beat resistance!

Update: I passed the ITIL v4 exam – 03/16/2024
