I don't remember the last time I was this happy.

I've passed the Microsoft certification exam which I've failed badly in the past. A solid "B" score, with room to spare. Only a small percentage of people in my industry have this certification, not because it's super brainy, but because of its ridiculously huge scope. I've studied and reviewed for 3+ months and kept pounding away - unfortunately, at first, a lot of it was rote memorization of things which I've never used before. At first I even noticed that having so much information in my mind which I had no use for made me ill - so I started playing with the things I learned to better see why they're useful.

Why is this good news to you as a MGTOW? Read on.

I tried to do it before and after stressful preparation and studying I failed it miserably - I was studying while having a full-time job. This time, I quit my job to have time to study. Some days I was so absorbed in the material that I didn't notice that I didn't eat until after noon, it was that much fun to experiment in my own lab - no matter how dry is the material that you're studying - once you start experimenting and testing the new concepts, the serenity of it is amazing, the thrill of finally "getting it" is intense. I don't think I could ever pass it while working full-time.

How to do it: Once you pick a certification / exam which you want to pass, have some $ saved up, quit work or take a leave of absence (which would be challenging if in relationship with some leech idiot woman), and while studying - study at your own pace. Get plenty of sleep and R&R. It's important to not overexert yourself, because you'll not want to go back to it. How I studied: I took my time, I made sure to not just read the material, but play with it in my simulated lab, at my leisure, for my leisure. Once I got the feeling that I could teach all of the sections to someone, I scheduled the exam.

Mind you, I'm not what you call a smart guy, but I'm persistent. If I can do it - anyone can do it. Especially if you're MGTOW and are left alone.
