I just want to tell you that your English is flawless, your attitude is awesome, and thank you for spreading that positivity to those of us preparing for our test. You rock!

@11:49 you said that until you submitted the exam you thought you were failing. "Don't let the exam scare you" I remembered this line of yours while giving my exam. While giving the exam I had given up the hope that I will pass but your line kept me going. Thank you so much. You gave me courage when I needed it the most. I passed my exam with 776 score.

I applaud you brother! Thanks for this inspiring video. I am sitting for this exam on April 27th and must confess I having heavy anxiety. I just recently graduated college with my first bachelors in IT at the age of 48 and have had a hell of a time finding a job. I have just felt defeated and depressed, but your video has given me some hope. Again, thank you for this up lifting video, it really made me smile! Good luck on YOUR journey as well. Keep us updated on all that you do!

This video is so wholesome and such a blessing.

Absolutely love your video. Thank you so much. Taking my exam in 30-days. Started studying again as of yesterday 🙏🏾 I will give an update back. I failed the first time but I know I will pass for my next test coming up! Update: I gave myself more time to complete the entire Security+ Get Certified get ahead book this past Monday 3/27/2023, can’t believe I finished it, along with all practice exams at the end of each chapter. Praying I pass this month. 🙏🏾

I have failed three times already. As you said English is my second language too. I have an associated degree in cybersecurity however I can't find a job because every company required a Security+ certificate. Thank you for sharing your experience. It's helpful.

Thank you so much for this video. I am totally new to this field, I do not know much about computers in general, and just like you English is my second language, thats how you got me to watch the full video, because I think this is sometimes what stops us from doing things. Thank you for the encouraging words and you truly make it seem like it is nothing and anyone can do it. Thank you!

You are Occam's Razor! Thanks!! The focus is like fresh air; badly needed!

Thanks so much for sharing your experience with the Security +, it has given me an added boost. I think I will stay with the Professor Messer and Darril Gibson book as my tool and as you stated, don't have that much money to burn around..

Thank you for all the positivity and encouragement, you have inspired me to go straight for my Security Plus certificate as well. Keep making great videos.

Thank you for all the positivity! Keep shining bright!

Thank you for sharing your knowledge and tips for Security+. Great video!

The fact you learned English better than most native speakers is the testimony that you are not just an average person, you are a smart person!

Really appreciate the positivity in this video! I'm scheduling my test soon and this was very helpful.

I just want to say - you have just given me so much confidence to sit and get this certification before the end of the year. I had some fears as I am a bit older now but thank you for this care that you show and I’m going to follow your advice step by step 😅

This was a great video man! I'm taking a Security+ class at my local community college right now. My professor said he will have the school pay for your voucher if you get a B or higher in the class. I'm 31 and in the process of changing careers. I wanted to take the Network+ exam first but I'm going to hold off and go all in for the Security+ after listening to your advice.

Thank you very much for the tips! I really was freaking out. Now I feel more confident about what I've studied.

Wow this video was done so well, you answered the most faq in full, and left resources in the description! Well done and thank you for the positivity and the optimism I happily subscribed. Thank you!

Found this Video this week - it's a year old, however all the Tips and Strategies are still very relevant. Well done sir!!! Great video!!! Ty for sharing your knowledge and content!! I will begining the CompTIA Big 3 starting April 1st, starting with A+, then in around June/July starting NET+, and then sometime around Sept/Oct starting SEC+. I'm doing the whole gambit because it's part of my School Program in Cybersecurity and... I think it's the best path for me to not feel super overwhelmed trying to dive straight into SEC+ anyways.

Thank you, I'm starting so new and green to the IT field, with a wife, kid, and working full time while doing school part time I'm trying to break into the cyber security branch within my company and wanted to make myself more marketable for the division. I'm really scared of letting my family down because this is a major opportunity, but I feel if I don't try even though I have a lot on my plate already I'll miss out. However, despite all my rambling this video was really what I needed to hear. Thank you and I wish you the best in life and hope the desire to be hungry (professionally) guides our success! 👌🏻😎🥇

Your energy is amazing! Thank you for the kind words. I’ve seen so many confusion videos with different advice. I feel much more confident now.!

I'm taking my exam in September. I earned my Bachelors Degree in Cybersecurity and this course is a nice refresher to what I learned or helped me re-understand something that a previous instructor told me. This video was great! I feel a lot better knowing that I'm at the halfway point of this certification.

Thank you for sharing, man! Great video!!

you are such a sincere and caring person! thank you!!

Bro I Gotta Say I've Never Actually Wrote A Comment For Any Video Iv'e Watched & There Have Been Many But You Gave A Tone Of Value. Thanks Fam

I am already in IT and though I have other certifications, I need this one. I found your video to be nothing less than inspiring. Thank you 🙏🏾

Thank you so much for this very informative video! I will be using your notes and taking in your advice!!

Wished I had seen this video three years ago. Great motivational video. This is explained so well. Thank you very much.

You have encouraged me. You are a good dude. Thanks man!

I first though it was just a video but your video seems very genuine. I appreciate that.

This is the first video I've seen that says positive things about the security+ certificate. All the other videos really killed my interest in cybersecurity. Im going thru a career crisis and boy was I spiraling. Great video. Thank you.

Bro, so many positive vibes from you. I am really motivated and encouraged by this video. Thanks

Thank you man. Good luck to all of us.

Great words of encouragement... Just what I needed! Thanks

Thanks for the encouragement, bro, reading the book is boring and had me sort of feeling overwhelmed. This def put a fire in me tho to keep going! Much love from Dallas

Thanks very much, a very good presentation. You have a positive attitude and you have taken the fear out of me. Stay blessed.

Very encouraging. Thank you.

Thanks Essam youre amazing. This is most motivating. Mabrook on getting the Security+

You have inspired me man, thanks for sharing!

Thanks for making this video. I have the exam tomorrow and I was very nervous. Now I feel a lot better. I did a 6 month long cyber security bootcamp and I had the official practice guide for Comptia that went through all the objectives section by section with a practice test included. I recently went through all almost all of the Professor Messer videos and I knew 90% of all the information he shared already. I went through the entire objectives list again writing down anything I didn't know. I hope I pass!

You are a genius and genuine person. I hope you will stay more successful in your future. And thanks for your honest video for everyone’s success. Thank you again.

Your English is flawless. I just assumed you were a native speaker until you said you learned English recently. The rest of the video I was listening to how good your English is and I honestly have a hard time believing you just learned it. I work with people who were born in the USA and have lived here their whole lives who don't even speak and cleanly as you do. Good work. Thanks for the Sec+ tips too! I still do think people should get at least Network+ in addition to Security+. I don't really care the order you get them in, but the two certifications actually go together very well. Network+ actually has a lot of security concepts in it that are not addressed in the Security+ certification. So I think its a good idea to get both. A+ is far less necessary because it mostly focuses on HelpDesk type work. It is a good cert if you are getting into the IT field, but it becomes mostly worthless after you have about 1 yr of experience. That is why a lot of people get A+ as 20 year olds and then never renew it. It is totally possible to get Security+ without Network+, but I still think they both complement each other and they are both security-related. So its still a good idea to get both. Security+ focuses more on actual attacks and Network+ focuses far more on preventative security. If you are just getting started, it's better to do Network+ first just because when you get Security+ second, then it will extend the length of your Network+ certification (but if you do it the other way around you don't get any extensions). Getting them in this order will save you money, but from a difficulty perspective, it doesn't really matter. Getting CCNA would also make Network+ unnecessary. Right now employers LOVE the CCNA certification in addition to Security+. I do understand your point that you want to learn networking yourself and don't want to pay for the Network+ certificate and I think its really awesome. Personally, the ~$100 per year ($330 for 3 years) of the cert should pay for itself because you will be able to get more job offers with the extra cert and you can justify at least a few extra thousand per year in Salary, so the cert is still worth the investment, it simply validates your knowledge. But the best employees continue to learn above and beyond the certification levels and that is what you show off in your interview.

im taking my Sec+ 501 cert in June. This was very motivational. The problem I have is remembering everything. I just want to pass cause I need a job and really poor af! good luck to everyone taking the test!

Thanks for doing this video. It was really helpful, gave me some new tips and reinforced my confidence in advice I've heard elsewhere.

You ARE inspiring. Thank you for encouraging me.

Sir your video is great...you have cleared all my doubts...and the videos is explained very well...your English is fabulous..keep up the good work :)

you are the best ,the best

Thank you so much for sharing your experience.

This video boosted my confidence.. I passed mine with 860 on 6/03/2021 While Jason Dion's course covers almost everything, I found Mike Meyer's more engaging and thereby easier to grasp (he doesn't cover all the topics though and by itself is not enough). Finally. Practice tests.. lots and lots of it

Great video. Thanks for sharing.

I've been watching Professor Messer and his material is very good.

I’m going straight from it fundamentals to security+. Can’t wait

Man this video is a relief for me 😁 thank you so much for the tips and tricks!!!!

Thanks for the info... I now have a plan, on how to attack the exam. 👍🏽

Thanks- I felt discouraged after taking my first practice exam but I will keep studying until I feel ready and then take it.

Thank you so much for this. Studying for the sec+ 601 now and this kinda eased my anxiety

You got a subscriber🤟🏿🤟🏿

So helpful. Thank you.

Awesome thank you I am in the process now

I am Ascp certified Medical Laboratory scientist and I am studying for the security + (changing career)now, thanks for the positive energy bro!!!

Thankyou so much for your guidance...

Well done bro, I'm studying right now.

Thanks for the notes and thanks for studying with me bro. Advice to anyone: Know how the questions are asked. Read them carefully. Review your questions after you finish. REVIEW THEM. Darril Gibson's GCGA practice tests are a must. Finally, focus on those PBQ's. Relax and get certified.

Nice work. You English is better than some people born here, rock on brother.

thanks for the encouragement
