This is not the end point, not even the starting point of the end point, but it may be the end point of the starting point. --Winston Churchill
The CCIE club has two popular words. "When you decide to become CCIE, you are already CCIE." And "Every CCIE is a story." This is my first CCIE routing and switching direction. Two sentences harvested in the course. Today, after so many years, I want to add a sentence "CCIE is just a starting point." To friends who are already CCIEed.
When I read "The Evergreen" at noon, I saw the story of a gangster master and shared it with everyone first.
A martial arts master squatted in front of the martial arts master, accepting the hard-won black belt ritual. After many years of rigorous training, this apprentice finally made a name in the martial arts.
"Before giving you the black belt, you must accept another test." Master Wu Lin said.
"I am ready." The apprentice replied, thinking that it might be the last round of practice.
“You have to answer the most basic question: What is the true meaning of the black belt?”
"It is the end of my martial arts process." The apprentice said, "It is a reward that I should get hard to practice."
Master Wu Xue is waiting for him to say something. Obviously he is not satisfied with the apprentice's answer. Finally he spoke up: "You haven't gotten to take the black belt. Come back a year later."
A year later, the apprentice once again squatted in front of the martial arts master.
"What is the real meaning of the black belt?" asked the master.
"It is a symbol of excellence and highest achievement in the martial arts of this family." The apprentice said.
Master Wu Xue, wait, wait, after a few minutes, I still don't speak, obviously he is not satisfied. Finally he said: "You still haven't got the black belt. Come back a year later."
A year later, the apprentice was kneeling in front of Master. Master asked again: "What is the real meaning of the black belt?"
“The black belt represents the beginning – the starting point for the endless process of tempering, striving and pursuing higher standards.”
"Good. You can accept the black belt and start fighting."
Many years ago, at a CCIE club sharing session, I talked to CCIE members about the true value of CCIE. This is my own journey along the way. The value of CCIE in my mind is not a result. It is a process, a passion that has never been experienced or disappeared in your life, a journey of your youth through the years of youth, a song written with blood.
