\t\t\t\tI’m 32 years OLD<\/strong> (Yup I know). Unlike the previous years in my life, my goal for coming year is more practical and involves writing down what I have learned in last 10 years.<\/p>\n

<\/p>\n

Recently a friend shared with me a poll asking, “Are you a proud entrepreneur” and I answered “Yes”. The people who have not known me since long, think I’m working on a start-up. It sounds cool, but that is not the case because I’m doing what I have been doing, since almost a decade. In January 2016, it would be 10 years since I quit my Architecture studies and got into freelancing. It’s been a long time and the sad part is, I have not achieved anything worth being proud of. The only thing I have been proud of is to begin my career without any help and with almost nothing and to be able to continue working on things I love while also being able todo as much as I can for my family. So to answer my friends question of whether “I’m a proud entrepreneur”, my answer is “I really don’t know”.<\/p>\n

I started creating websites in the era when Geocities & Altavista sounded exciting. The Internet has changed a lot since then and fortunately, it’s something that still excites me.To make things clear for people who have not known me since long, let me state that I am not a start-up.I don’t have a fancy word for describing what I do other than saying, that I’m a person who makes his living by creating websites. I hope this information is sufficient.<\/p>\n

So this coming year, I have made acommitment to writing more consistently about things that I have learned over the years from my own mistakes and the things I learned from other people. To keep my posts relevant, I would also be sharing about everything that I’m working on now and over the next 12 months.<\/p>\n

If you continue reading, while I may not promise youinstant riches or to make you better at your job, I am sure when you find yourself in a situation similar to mine, you would be able to make more informed decisions and maybe better decisions than me.<\/p>\n

So before I write about some serious things in my next post, the few things I like to share with newbies getting into freelance web development workare<\/p>\n
