Waleed grew up as an only
child. Since both his parents encouraged and motivated him to work hard for his
own dreams, he also grew up as an intelligent and talented boy; he grew up
in a small neighborhood with adults—his parents and his friends. Because of this, he never really
knew what it meant to be a kid; since the adults around he was quite
overprotective too, he didn't learn how to relate well with other kids. Growing up, he felt accustomed
to the company of adults. He was always more mature than the other children at
school. Even when he gained friends, he often felt annoyed at them while
growing up because he felt that they were too childish.
The adults who raised, taught and had invested a lot in his—this encouraged him to excel in all of his subjects as well as any hobbies he decided to take up. Now that he's all grown up, accepts that back then, he may have seemed smug to his peers. While he didn't realize this back then, he hadn't learned self-awareness until years later. When he was in high school, he started feeling the pressure from his parents' and grandparents' high expectations. Gradually, he stopped joining extra-curricular activities and instead, made the choice to work. Still, Waleed graduated at the top of his class, although he wasn't the valedictorian. Looking back, Waleed thinks that he didn't try as hard because he didn't want to give his family the satisfaction. Then when it was time for college, he chose to go to a public university that was far away from his home instead of the private university his parents hoped he would attend. He made this choice so he could feel like a "small fish in a big pond." Throughout his college life, Waleed didn't join a lot of outside activities. He joined acting and drawing, and he made a very outstanding performance at the first role of acting even because the president of the group after several of his friends convinced him to take the role. He also worked to pay his bills and apartment rent, after several jobs, he started working for a translation office and advertising company. From there, he aimed to meet his potential, take on new challenges, but he didn't strive hard to go beyond expectations.
Probably because of the kind of family he grew up in, he never imagined himself having a business of his own. He didn't want to get tied down by doing business and investing, so he always believed that business wasn't for him. But in the year 2018, he met a man named Saad and—after a couple of years learning about business and marketing—he decided to do business with him. One year later, they welcomed their first incoming small trading company their life. Since then, he let go of his career-man life and became a businessman. He feels both happy and proud of this role of his. He feels like this is the perfect role for his as he watches his incoming business grow up into a huge well-known industry. He remains driven but this time, not for himself, but for his own business. Although he still finds it challenging to relate to many other companies in doing business with them, he feels like he is an expert when it comes to his business. Even though he never learned how to be a businessman, he's hoping his little dream will become true and teach others to be like him when the time comes. This is where he gets his strength and motivation.
Waleed: In the early stages of his life.
Waleed started working for the Alkhomasia Furniture Factory and the manufacture and sewing of beds and various fabrics, during that period he moved to work in a city far away from his small-town, upon meeting him for the first time and working far from his family, he found a new life and completely different from the city he used to live in before. He has begun to find things that have been lacking for some time and has begun to learn and develop himself little by little until he knew the things that may change his life and achieve his dreams of stumbling that he did not find any way to achieve, got acquainted with many friends and tried to engage with them and start building scientific plans and strategies to understand the methods of free trading or the so-called new electronic commerce (digital marketing). He found what he wanted, but he did not expect that these things may be difficult and may require a lot of time and effort to get to what he wants. During that period, he decided to quit sewing and achieve his goals that never tire or tire, in mid-2019, he decided to leave the factory and headed to a completely different life, a life that I think might give him new horizons …
Waleed stands at the threshold of new challenges.
Waleed seemed to work in many and many companies that he had found himself with little experience and information and had forced himself to move away from the life of pleasure and luxury to build his mind and nourish his mind with a lot of information and other experiences. During the beginning of the year 2020, he started working for a translation office, and he became very close in that period in his dreams that still occupy his mind, in the middle of 2020 Waleed met other friends as he found that there are training courses to raise the efficiency and good and useful information where he joined one of the important courses that have occupied his mind that since and which may change his life if he continues to learn more.
Waleed is at the beginning of learning new things.
Waleed found an announcement about a training course related to foreign banks and documentary credits that have no borders in the current world of commerce and decided during that period to learn this experience and engage in it. Waleed did not know to surrender during his difficult period that did not give him a lot of money, rather he lived with it only and could not live like other young men where they can go and live in absolute freedom, Waleed meant during that period of saving money and paying off his debts that were piling upon him. Waleed discovered that it is not easy to earn money and become rich quickly. Waleed found that there are limits in life that do not give any opportunity to achieve what you want and whenever you want, he found that dreams remain dreams if you do not strive for them and achieve them.
Waleed; returning home during the Coronavirus pandemic.
During the period that the world passed through a fatal and severe illness that killed a quarter of the planet's population, Waleed decided to return home and put his scattered ideas in one boat and see if he could start over again and find a better job opportunity, on that day Waleed received a phone call from his teacher who has taught him a lot and a lot.
During the phone call, Waleed had received an offer to work for one of the foreign banks known in the field of business and financial trade. Waleed decided to return quickly to the city again, although he knows very well that he may contract a fatal disease, but he insisted on trying and starting new challenge and unknown path.
Waleed is starting his new role as a banker specializing in Letter of Credit (LC) transactions.
Waleed started working for the bank on the fifth of May 2020 and began to learn things quickly because he had seen that this is the dream that he had been seeking for a long time.
By carrying it in his hands, it was the opportunity that he saw things very closely and clearly, Waleed got to know many owners of well-known and well-known companies Waleed decided to get to know them and work with them until that day came when another contract was awarded to him with a very low salary as he did not expect it on that day Waleed was not in a good condition even though he was joking with his colleagues at work.
On the 16th of August 2020, Waleed left his work eventually and decided to search for other new jobs. When Waleed did not find any suitable job, days, and weeks passed by him without finding any job that he was hoping to obtain, during that time Waleed decided to return home again and start looking for more opportunities.......to be continued.
