Which course is best for future life? CCNA or Windows Server or Redhat linux

Deciding career between  CCNA or Windows Server or Redhat linux:

You're going to get 100 answers to that question, nobody can really tell the future. We don't know your background, we don't know the area you live in, your ability to relocate if need be etc. All of which impacts an answer that is useful for you. While data centers are now Linux and Windows primarily, that may not be what you end up working with. You may do Windows support more than anything, or maybe you end up as a storage admin which is skills you don't even list.

The internet runs on Linux - no doubt about it. But are those companies hiring where you live? Or are the companies where you live still mainly using Windows? In the next 4-5 years are you expecting to move to another area? If not, it's the area you live in mainly need Windows skills that is what you need to focus on. If they do Linux then focus on that. If they do both, do both! Common for all IT is networking, so that's not a bad skill to have.

So there's no way you are going to just be able to pick ONE of those. With time you should aim at getting all of them, and then some. Right now, your focus should be on what gets you hired or paid better at companies in your neighborhood You can find that using websites like Payscale, Glassdoor etc.
