Sunday, 18 January 2026
Aaj mere journey ka Day 1 tha. Ye din sirf aik routine day nahi tha, balkay aik sochi samjhi direction ka pehla practical qadam tha.
Main ne apni zindagi ka aik bara risk liya. Risk kam nahi tha balkay kaafi zyada tha jab main ne corporate sector ki stable aur permanent job chhor di. Wahan fixed income thi, comfort zone tha, aur predictability thi. Lekin andar se mehsoos ho raha tha ke growth ruk chuki hai. Comfort ne mujhe slow kar diya tha. Isi liye main ne consciously decide kiya ke agar growth chahiye, to comfort chhorna hoga.
๐31 December ko main ne job chhori.Ye koi majboori nahi thi, balkay aik deliberate decision tha โ apni life aur career ka control wapas lene ke liye. ๐ฏ Challenge Definition
Mera challenge bilkul clear hai:
โLearning ke sath earning first month mein $1,000 earn karna.โ
Is challenge ka core sirf paisa nahi, balkay:
- self-discipline
- skill building
- consistency
- aur real market execution
Main apna time aur actions daily journal ki form mein document kar raha hoon, taake process transparent rahe aur khud ko accountable rakh sakoon.
๐ค Community & Direction
Jo community aur course main follow kar raha hoon,wo sirf theory nahi hai.
๐งฉ Is community mein jo baatein ho rahi hain discipline, honesty, consistency, skills aur execution asal mein wo sab kuch hai jo main khud apni life mein apply karna chahta hoon.
Isi liye main ne decide kiya ke main is framework ko follow karoon ga.
