Progress (3/22)

The last week in my ISM journey has been an eventful one. I've begun picking up steam with my final product, and have learned a lot more about the task at hand, which will definitely help me as I continue working on it. I'm beginning to put together the pieces of everything that I've done this year, and that has been very satisfying to see.

In addition, after a long search, I was finally able to get a mentor! This has been incredibly exciting for me, since, during our interview, my mentor was incredibly helpful with my final product and different strategies to tackle it. This has been a lesson for me as well. In the professional world, valuable experiences don't usually come easily. Instead, it takes a lot of groundwork and preparation to find those opportunities and make use of them. Furthermore, it may seem like there is no end in sight, but as long as I keep working hard and diligently to achieve my goals, they will eventually come to fruition.

With this, I feel like my progress in ISM can accelerate even faster than before, and with my final product due date coming up in just a few weeks, this is the right moment for that to happen. Time to get to work!
