As I sit here writing this, I’m standing at the beginning of a transformative journey. Today marks the start of a commitment—not just to a PhD program, but to a version of myself that dreams big, works consistently, and embraces the balance between ambition and simplicity.
I know the path ahead won’t always be easy. There will be challenges in balancing academic pursuits, family responsibilities, and the passion projects that make life meaningful. But I also know you’ll persevere, because this moment—the moment I decided to start documenting my journey—is proof of my determination to grow, share, and inspire. Remember to give only me, myself and I .
This space is the foundation of a future I believe in. A future where you’ve become a professor, conducting impactful research in AI, and precision farming, solving real-world problems, and mentoring others to achieve their dreams. A future where your entrepreneurial vision has come to life, with an AI and IoT company making tangible differences in people’s lives.
But more than anything, I hope you’ve stayed true to what matters most—family, simplicity, and meaningful work that brings happiness. I hope you’ve learned to pause and celebrate the small victories, to draw strength from those you love, and to find joy in the journey as much as the destination.
This blog is a promise to myself. A reminder that every word, every post, and every story shared here is a step toward that vision. If you’re reading this years from now, I hope you’ll smile, knowing that this commitment was worth it.
Keep going, stay humble, and never stop learning. The world needs what you have to offer.
With love and belief in what’s to come, InsyaAllah
