This first of its kind guidebook is a result of filtering and crystallizing all of the ideas and strategies that we collected from talking with a large number of CCIEs. In this guidebook we: • Share our stories and stories of many successful CCIEs with you. • Offer the knowledge that we have gained throughout our CCIE journey two times. • Cover over 30 topics and issues that we have faced and that you will likely be facing. • Will walk you through every step of the journey. • Give you multiple timelines for engineers with different skill sets. • Tell you the right frame of mind that you will need to pass your CCIE lab. This book is written in a very relaxing casual conversational format in which, we present to you the strategies that we used and then give our own personal example as "what we did." Each chapter is about 3 to 4 short pages right to the point with clear and precise answers to your questions. Please visit our website www.2doubleccies.com for Videos and more.
