Thank you for the suggestion!
You’re absolutely righ with the security concepts still fresh, the CCSP is the logical next step. It’s actually already on my roadmap; in fact, I just downloaded the CSA (Cloud Security Alliance) kit yesterday. I completely agree that vendor-neutral certifications provide a much broader strategic value than vendor-specific ones.
I also really appreciate your perspective on studying. Every brain processes information differently, and finding that 'personal fit' is vital for long-term retention. In my case, I’m a very hands-on learner: if I can’t take something apart, put it back together, and make it work, my brain just doesn't grasp it.
Because I know how challenging this journey can be for families, I’m planning to develop a cross-platform app to improve training for people with special needs. I firmly believe that one of the core principles is supporting the parents so they can, in turn, better support their children. If you ever need help or a sounding board regarding special needs support or study strategies, please count on me.
Regarding Luke, I’ve definitely seen his work! I watched many of his YouTube videos, and of course, Think Like a Manager was a staple for me. I must have watched it at least 20 times; it was a fundamental part of me earning my CISSP.
