CISSP is a beautiful seed
CISSP is a beautiful seed that needs daily nourishment.
If you’re preparing for CISSP, treat it like planting a seed.
If you’re already certified, treat it like nurturing a tree.

Most cyber folks pass the CISSP exam, update LinkedIn, and think:
“Alright, I’m done. What’s next?”
Getting CISSP certified is like stopping watering a plant. The real journey to become a tree starts after that.
CISSP is not a set of checklists.
It’s a compass for how you think about security.
It’s a responsibility to apply, adapt, and protect. It’s a cycle of learning, not a line to cross.
Here’s how I’ve kept mine alive:
✅ Read one page of a security concept
✅ Revise my understanding with simplicity and creativity
✅ I turn concepts into digital sketches — to explain and teach
CISSP As An Art is more than prep.
It’s a way to think.
In my CISSP world, every concept is a story, art, or visual. Join the CISSP As An Art (CaaART) tribe, the first visual-only CISSP course.
