Eidi isn’t just a gift, it’s a gesture of appreciation, a way to give back to those who make the journey worthwhile.

As I handed these out to my team, I was reminded of how success isn’t built alone. It’s the people around us, their effort, dedication, and loyalty that turn visions into reality.

Here’s the truth:
✅ A strong team is the backbone of every success story.
✅ Small gestures create lasting impacts.
✅ Gratitude should always be expressed, not just felt.

Thankful for my team, the hard work they put in, and the journey ahead.

Standing on this stage at the The Citizens Foundation Fundraising Event was a surreal moment for me. I was invited to share my journey, from being a student at The Citizens Foundation (TCF) to earning admission at LSE University, a dream that felt out of reach.

But behind the scenes, TCF was there, supporting me every step of the way. Today, thanks to freelancing, I’ve reached new heights, financial independence, freedom, and the ability to give back.

Lessons from this journey:
✅ Education changes lives, it certainly changed mine.
✅ Opportunities come to those who dare to chase them.
✅ Your past doesn’t define you; your actions do.

Grateful for TCF, for the people who believed in me, and for the path that led me here. This is just the beginning.

👉 How has education shaped your journey

Standing at the most serene place on earth—Masjid-e-Nabwi.
Alhamdulillah, no success, no achievement, and no amount of wealth can compare to this moment.

Freelancing gave me financial freedom, but this—this is the real reward. The peace, the closeness to Allah, and the realization that true success is not in material gains but in the heart that remembers Him.

𝗔 𝗠𝗼𝗺𝗲𝗻𝘁 𝗼𝗳 𝗧𝗿𝘂𝗲 𝗣𝗲𝗮𝗰𝗲:

✅ Rizq is written by Allah—seek it with honesty.
✅ Hustle for dunya, but never forget your akhirah.
✅ True success is when your work brings you closer to your Creator.

Alhamdulillah for this blessing. May Allah grant everyone the opportunity to experience this peace.

✅ Your laptop can be your passport to the world.

✅ Skills are more valuable than degrees.

✅ Financial freedom is built, not given.

I wasn’t born with resources or a safety net. My love for travel often meant borrowing whatever I could to visit new places. Back then, even a short trip felt like a luxury.

Freelancing changed everything.

Now, my work allows me to explore places I once only dreamed of. This journey is proof that consistent effort pays off—even when the odds feel stacked against you.

𝗛𝗲𝗿𝗲’𝘀 𝘄𝗵𝗮𝘁 𝗜’𝘃𝗲 𝗹𝗲𝗮𝗿𝗻𝗲𝗱:

✅ Your starting point doesn’t define your destination.
✅ Small steps add up—keep going.
✅ Financial freedom is possible with skill and consistency.

Asad and I built our journey from the ground up. No big investments, no fancy setups, just two friends chasing a dream with pure dedication.

For years, we worked side by side, pushing through challenges, learning, and growing together. But as life unfolded, Asad took a different path.

Here’s what I’ve learned from our journey:

✅ Some partnerships last a lifetime, others shape a phase of your journey.

✅ Growth sometimes means taking different paths.

✅ True friendships remain, no matter where life takes you.

We started together. We grew in different ways. And I wouldn’t change a thing.

𝗔𝗜 𝘁𝗼𝗼𝗹𝘀 are evolving rapidly, and with new players like 𝗗𝗲𝗲𝗽𝘀𝗲𝗲𝗸 entering the market, the question arises—how does it compare to 𝗖𝗵𝗮𝘁𝗚𝗣𝗧?
