Speaking my heart out. It reflects my emotions

On this special day, as I celebrate my birthday, I reflect on my journey from a passionate freelancer to an online trainer and now a corporate CEO at Innovista.

My early fascination with computers led me to explore freelancing, where I embraced opportunities in web development and graphic design. This journey not only enabled me to refine my expertise but also ignited a passion for imparting knowledge to others, culminating in the establishment of a substantial community within the country.

Through platforms like YouTube, Facebook, and earlier Digiskills.pk, initiatives such as Life-Changing Training (LCT) or countless LIVE hours spent on webinars, I have been privileged to mentor aspiring freelancers, empowering them to achieve financial independence that is reflected in my public appearances. The love that is showered is priceless.

As the co-founder of WorkChest.com, Pakistan's first and largest freelance marketplace, I have witnessed firsthand the transformative power of networking. Building relationships with like-minded individuals and organizations has been instrumental in creating opportunities for collaboration and growth. I'm proud to have played an instrumental role in building of skilled professionals, so we can collectively work towards alleviating poverty in Pakistan. I believe, our combined efforts can drive economic development and create a brighter future for our nation and our youth to follow who look up to us as role model.

In addition to my endeavors, I am proud to introduce LearnEasy.pk, It's an Innovista online training portal dedicated to providing free courses in emerging and trending skills. The mission is to empower individuals across Pakistan by offering accessible education in high-demand fields such as Data sciences, AI, ML, DL, SEO, content writing, machine learning, cybersecurity, and DevOps, etc. Each course is meticulously designed to help learners excel in today's competitive world and includes a free certificate upon completion. By equipping our youth with these valuable skills, we aim to foster economic growth and contribute to poverty alleviation in Pakistan.

Like an average human, no - I am no Superman. I have days when I am down, days when shoulders drop but not a single moment in those days, the aspiration to continue playing my role in the nation's reform through technology has dropped.

Today, I will profoundly say. It's not my mission alone anymore. Understand your responsibility. I want you to join hands with me, together we can bring a change in this country our ideals once dreamed of when the foundation was laid. We, the people of Pakistan should choose our destiny, a future that holds an enabling environment for our kids to happily live on this soil.

I have no doubt that the path leading to that brighter future is tech-based. Also. we need to raise awareness in the remote areas of Pakistan and educate them about the importance of the using internet and skills for seeking professional opportunities worldwide. Soon. they will navigate their way, pretty much like most of you have found their passion. Some of you have risen to the top of organizations, few stepped into eCommerce and a few exploring fields unknown to me yet!

Folks. let's rebuild our great country in 2025. Let's unite our efforts to uplift the underprivileged people of our community Let's work to raise education standards and ensure that no child is left behind in our efforts to uplift society.

Alone I can't, Together we can.

Hey, stop guessing. No, I am not 50 yet :-)

Much Love,

Hisham Sarwar
