Pep Talk for Network Administrators Learning Automation

The Network Automation Journey

In this episode I give you a "pep talk", a bit of encouragement for those that are experiencing some fear and perhaps even some loathing when it comes to learning network automation.

Generally, I see three main reasons why students I encounter and network professional are hesitant to learn network automation skills and tools:

1. They think they don't have the talent for it (the midichlorian problem)
2. They think they'll automate themselves out of a job
3. They think they're too old to learn

I go through each one and talk about them. I hope it helps address any hesitation you might have.
