Try Harder is a reminder that the challenges you encounter, whether while preparing for certifications like OSCP, OSCE3, or in your daily cybersecurity work, require continuous effort and determination to solve.
\nIt's about:
\n- Not giving up easily: Answers are often not obvious and require creativity and persistence.
\n- Embracing discomfort: Real learning happens outside of your comfort zone, tackling problems that seem unsolvable.

The new OSCP 2.0 course work has been a vast improvement over the first series. I found the topics have been updated to more modern attack scenarios. The active directory portions in particular are highly relevant to modern attacks such as AD-CS privilege escalation.

\nDiscord really is a helpful place. The methodology of \"Try Harder\" still exists but Offensive Security is really helping to reduce the hurdles of the exam. Plus it provides a great spot to network within the industry.
\nI chose the OSCP due to its recognition in the industry and also because I truly believe their new approach is a solution that is great for the community as well as their company.
