Great job finishing this section about the PMP Exam domains I know there's a lot of information and
a section and some of that's really tedious and dry.
But it's important for us to review that and I encourage you to come back to this or to come back to
the PMP handbook that you downloaded periodically because you really need to know that information as
you go in and prepare to pass the exam.
It's really important because that's what you're tested on.
Don't ignore the content of this lecture.
And so we talked about the five domains that we talked about initiating planning executing Moniteur
controlling in your favorite closing.
So those five domains and the task within those are really what you are tested on now will correlate
that business as we move through the remainder of the Course like we're going to be looking at all of
those process groups and at how does that relate to test material.
So your assignment was to download into Read the PMP handbook and so that will be a good umbrella of
what the remainder of the Course has that you can always reference back to that PMP handbook and say
Is this something that I really know how to do or should I spend some more time studying.
And so as we move through the course when we talk about these topics we're also talking about those
in relation to the Pinback guide 6 edition that those should mesh up in your study efforts.
Did you know that you are not studying to take the PMP Exam.
You're studying to pass the AP exam.
I believe there's a real difference in the mindset between I'm studying to take a test and I'm studying
to pass the test.
I think it's important for us to have p in a positive mental attitude that as we study that I'm studying
and doing this work because I'm studying the past because I have to go take it.
There's a difference I think between having to do something and wanting to do something that you have
to study.
It's like homework right.
You have a negative connotation there.
But if I want to do it then I'm excited about it that I get to do it this is a great opportunity.
So part of that PMA is to think about that.
I don't have to do this.
This is something that I want to do that I'm choosing to do that you know is going to be good for your
career.
It's going to be good for you as a project manager to be good for your organization's going to give
you opportunities.
I know it's tough.
It's hard work.
It's like saying you want to go lose weight or you want to go run a marathon.
You have to give up some things like pie and cake and pizza all three things that I love.
But you have to give that up in order to be able to lose the weight and run the marathon or what have
you.
So the same is true here in our efforts to pass the PMP that I know you're giving up other things in
your life.
I know you could be you know going to the movies or going to a baseball game or watching TV or just
relaxing on the weekend but you're making a choice that you're choosing to do this because you realize
it's an investment.
And that's part of PMA.
But I want you to have that and continue to do that as we move through the course and I'll be here to
remind you of that.
So PMA PMA positive mental attitude.
Great job.
Keep up the PMA and I'll see you in the next election.
