“Keep away from those who try to belittle your ambitions” and The man who starts out simply with the idea of getting rich won’t succeed, you must have a larger ambition.”

I love the quote from spider-man movie “ With great powers, comes great responsibilities”

But we should not be afraid by taking risks, losses, failures, hurdles, obstacles, hardships, bad experiences. If we are true and ambitious to our goals, work seriously and sincerely to achieve it . Though it takes some time to achieve it but we will achieve it definitely.

To have my own start-up during the undergraduation is one of my professional goal. And that would not be wrong to say that I had already started working on this. The story started 18 months back, when I was just familiar with the name “Graphics Designing”. But later on I dived into this world and started exploring it and later on inducted as a designer in two art societies of my University. I started my freelancing career in this June when I received my first project. Till know I have worked on 50+ projects , called from 3 firms for full time job and 32 fully paid projects of designing. Day by day I learn a new thing in this field and find myself more creative.

Keep Record of my all project that makes me remember what I was few months ago…

So, here question may be arises in readers mind, why I don’t agree on the Job proposal? there are few reasons behind it.

  1. Part time job makes me restricted to same routine everyday.

2. There are other things and hobbies that i practice everyday besides designing. So, opting part time job results in the eradication of these activities.

3. As I mentioned about my interest in Entrepneurship that promises me self-employment.Then why I will go for tiresome hourly jobs?

So, coming to the point. Uptill now I put this interest of mine restricted to the designing only. What I have in my mind is to make a strong portfolio first almost in all areas of Graphics designing. Then launching a start up related to my interest.

The start-up will be in the form of Merchandise/Apparel Brand. I even decided the name “Mystic — By Hammad Butt” for it, in which I’ll not only make designs and export them in the beginning. Later on move to e-commerce and in future In sha Allah will have my own brand. So, here is my week 1 work, I’ll start working on this goal and making a strong portfolio first and gets familiar with the plain merchandise suppliers at cheap rates on which designs are to be printed.

Week 2 plan to separate the money for this start-up.So,that I have a clear vision in my mind regarding goal.

Week 3 plan to go for digital marketing to have large and organic audience virtually first.

Thanks for you time…. Baabyee…
