Do I learn too much? One thing is for sure. I have a short memory. I don’t remember a lot of stuff. I don’t really know what the cause is, but it’s not good. But I do remember a lot and I think one way to make sure that I will remember more is to make sure that I document what I learn. I need to do more detailed learning. Reading a book and expecting to get “stuck” in my mind is just not going to work.
Yes, I will change the way I learn. I have already started doing that, actually. My wiki is going to be the central place. My blogs will also be a destination.
I have an interview tomorrow! I am ready. I want it to happen. I can’t wait that much. I will get the job because I am a great candidate. I have to get that message across. I will not get the job though if I will not remember a lot of stuff. But I hope they don’t grill me on the syntax but more on abstract way of thinking, developing. I hope the focus is on being the right fit, rather than knowing every little detail.
I know my stuff. Either they will like it or not. But I have to get on with it since it’s distracting me a little bit.
I also have to keep in mind that my goal is to get a new job by the end of March 010. I still have time. But I will get this job! I want to work in a learning environment. I want to work in a Java shop.
