You do not need to know everything to get started in IT. You just need to start.
One of the biggest things that stops people from pursuing a career in IT is the feeling that there is too much to learn before they are ready. Too many technologies. Too many certifications. Too many things they do not know yet.
Here is the truth. Every sysadmin, every network engineer, every IT professional you have ever looked up to started exactly where you are right now. Knowing nothing. Googling everything. Figuring it out as they went.
Nobody walks into their first IT role knowing it all. You learn on the job. You learn in the lab. You learn by breaking things and fixing them. You learn by asking questions in communities like this one. That is how it has always worked and that is how it always will.
The only difference between the person who makes it in IT and the person who does not is that one of them started.
So if you have been putting it off, waiting until you feel ready, waiting until you know enough, waiting for the right moment, this is your sign. Open the lab. Start the course. Ask the question you have been afraid to ask.
The best time to start was yesterday. The second best time is right now.
