This is our best motivation! I failed my { rst JW twice before I passed, and I can still recall the emotions and the heartache of those particular days. I can also recall the tears of joy of when I passed as well! The certi{cation exam is tough. It takes planning, dedication, commitment, and strategy to get that pass. Looking forward to hearing about everyone’s success when they get their JW card! Thank you, Ruben, for sharing your knowledge sel|essly so others can move forward.  \nSincerely,  \nSergio Cortez  \nCEO and Master Trainer of Surge Electrical Training  \nHow To Pass The Electrical Journeyman Exam  \nCongratulations on taking the next big step in advancing your life and career! You might not think that picking this humble, little eBook up is a big step, but it is!  \nFrom my experience and from what studies show: Making the decision to take action is the difference that sets doers apart from dreamers. So, from here on out consider yourself a doer!  \nI’ve always been the type of person to doubt myself and I feared taking action. Being complacent and even making bad decisions came a little easier to me. I had the “if you don’t try, you can’t fail” mentality. But the reality is: If you fail to take action, then you've already committed to failing.  \nThis kind of mindset kept me from taking the electrical journeyman exam until I was well into my 10th year as an electrician-the shame, I know-At that point in my career I’ve already completed all of my electrical schooling, moved up in the trade, lead crews, ran jobs, and even helped bid some jobs. But not having my J-card kept me from moving up in two crucial areas: my con{dence and my wage.  \nI understand the reasons behind why we avoid taking or retaking the Journeyman exam and I want to do all that I can in the short span of this eBook to help answer those fears and doubts by pulling the curtain back on this exam and what it takes to pass it so that by the time you end this eBook, you’ll have the information, motivation and inspiration to start and {nish the process to becoming a journeyman.  \nLet’s get after it!  \nHow To Pass The Electrical Journeyman Exam  \n“A tenth-year apprentice”. That’s what a younger version of myself just starting out in the trade would have called me as I entered my 10th year asan electrician with no J-card. Although, I didn’t feel that bad since most of my co-workers (even some foreman) didn’t have their cards either. If you would have asked me why I hadn’t even attempted the test at that time I know exactly the excuses I would have given: “it costs too much”.“I don’t know what to study”.“I don’t know how to {ll out the paperwork to get my hours or apply for the journeyman exam”. All valid reasons, but underneath all that was the cold hard fact: I just lacked con{dence in myself.  \nSure, I could save up the money to pay for the exam, but ‘why do that if I’m just going to fail?’ And I could ask around to {nd a prep class to take, but‘what’s the use of all that energy and money if I’m just going to fail?’ And I could have even {gured out what paperwork I needed to {ll out and how todo it, but again, ‘what’s the use in all that time, energy and money if I’m just going to fail?’  \nThe reality was that I just didn’t have the con{dence in myself to go through all the trouble that went in to taking ","cbCaiijzC4o2JvhA","https://ap.wps.com/l/cbCaiijzC4o2JvhA","pdf",647176,26,"English","# Table Of Contents\n## Forward\n## Introduction\n## My Experience\n## Qualifications to Take the Journeyman Exam (CA example)\n## Bonus Tips\n## Developing Good Study Habits\n## Day of Examination Tips\n## Closing Words\n## Additional Help","[{\"question\":\"What mindset is emphasized for passing the Electrical Journeyman exam?\",\"answer\":\"The guide stresses committing to action and building confidence, even when fear of failing is present.
