Mastering Time Management ‼️

[Aakash Gupta @aakashgupta]

Put the best content of your resume in the top left.

People read in an F-pattern:

They read the top and left most content first.

Eye-tracking studies have made this clear for years.

This means, don't use the top left for:

• Design elements
• Skills & certifications
• A vague summary of your background

Much better uses of this space are:

• Clear context on your impact
• Most impactful launches & features
• Quick encapsulation of your value prop

The top left is also where to focus your optimization.

You can't count on almost anyone reading the bottom right.

I made a quick Automation to protect my iPhone if someone steals it while unlocked: if they turn on Airplane Mode (Find My), it asks for a passcode. If wrong… it automatically locks the phone 🔒, turns ON all connectivity 📡 + Low Power Mode 🔋, and shares its current location📍

[Vic🌪 @realvicandy]

end/ Once I feel confident and am scoring well on practice exams I will schedule a test for one to two weeks out from that point.

[Vic🌪 @realvicandy]

1/ I have been studying for the #security+ exam for one month and two weeks now. After having accumulated 360 acronyms on my acronyms list😂, and just finishing the SYO-601 course offered by Jason Dion. I feel much more confident and knowledgeable.

[Vic🌪 @realvicandy]

2/ I've purchased my exam voucher, which helped with my #motivation and #mindset, but haven't yet scheduled the exam. From here I plan on answering tons of practice questions, taking practice exams, and focusing on my weak points.
