Preparing to become a CISSP

I've decided to pursue the CISSP certification!  The CISSP is considered the gold standard of Information Security credentials, and is required by some of the world's most security-conscious organizations.  It assures that InfoSec leaders possess the breadth of knowledge, skills and experience required to credibly build and manage the security posture of an organization.  It will be a great challenge to prepare for the exam and pass it, but the subject matter is something that I am exposed to every day at work, so hopefully that will give me an advantage.
