I have been sitting here for the past half an hour, contemplating on what to write in this introductory post. It's like being back in school where one of our professors used to come into the classroom, sit there and asked all his/her students to introduce themselves to everyone. The panic that we all felt at the moment is something that I think all of us can relate to. It used to scary. A thousand thoughts running in our minds then something like this blurted out of our mouths:
"uhhh, my name is Huzaifa Naveed . I like to eat football and play chocolate cake."
Jokes aside, in this post, I'll be introducing myself on this platform. This will also serve as an oppurtunity for me to be a tad bit proud of myself as I'm always too hard on myself. I keep on thinking that I haven't done much in these 22 years and that I need to do more. There are times when I push myself, forcing to go an extra mile, where in reality I need to take a step back and relax for a while. I guess, competitiveness is in my nature. To be the very best in everything. That's humanely impossible but, it's possible to be the best in the few things that you've put yourself into. So lately, I have indulged myself in a few things and I have embarked a journey of mastering these things. I'll now be mentioning a few things about me which will help you in getting to know me a bit.
My Personal Information
I am a 22 year old guy who lives in the biggest metropolitan of Pakistan, ie, Karachi. I grew up in this city and till date I have been living here, except for a brief period of time in which I travelled abroad. I come from a family of doctors. When I say a family of doctors, I mean it. My mom and dad are both doctors. Both my elder brother are doctors and now I am lined up behind them. My younger brother got admission in the best Medical School of Karachi last year. So that makes us 6 doctors in our immediate family.
Being the middle child, I turned out to be the most different from my brothers. My brothers, don't usually like traveling too much, where on the other hand, I absolutely love traveling. I try to make sure that I atleast travel 3-4 times in an year. I know it's not too much, but it's what my pocket allows me to do. I spend all my money on travelling to be honest. I am talking about traveling to mountains and other cities and stuff. The most recent travelling that I did was to the northern areas of Pakistan, also known as Heaven on Earth.
These are only a few pictures of the countless adventures I've had. In the times to come, I'll share a lot more of these.
My Interests And Hobbies
I guess, I'm at that stage of life where my work becomes my hobby. Where it gets almost impossible to take out time for something else. I love writing and blogging and I have been doing it for the past 2-3 years. But where did this fonding for writing come from, one might ask? I was an avid novel reader. I used to read whole books in a single day. Anyway, with time my habit of reading books decreased and I started writing. I had also decided to write a book. Hasn't really worked out for me yet but who knows, one day I might.
Apart from that, as I mentioned, I'm in the medical field, an aspiring dentist. There's a really funny story behind it. When I got my medical school aptitude test, I realized I won't be getting admission in MBBS. My elder brother was the only dentist at that time. J remember saying that no matter what I'll never do dentistry. And look here I am loving BDS like never before.
In this picture, I am flaunting the teeth that I extracted flawlessly. I have developed a huge liking for my profession and I intend on becoming the very best in it
Apart from this, I have also been running a business of my own since the past 2 years. Yup you read that right, apart from being a doctor I have my own honey business which I run with my elder brother. We have our setup in the northern areas of Pakistan from where we supply honey all over the country.
I think, this picture perfectly describes me. Im this picture you can see me assorting hundreds of kgs of honey while donning my scrubs as well. So, I wasn't showing off. I had just come back from the hospital and had to assort these bottles for a pending order.
So, my interests involve doing what I do best. Blogging, being a dental surgeon and managing my business and travelling. If you decided to follow my account on Hive, you'll go through a lot of travelling blogs in which I'll share my experiences. I'll be posting my camping and hiking and beach experiences altogether.
For someone who started a business from scratch without any financial or back support. Ofcourse, asking for help from my dad or any other person in my family was out of question, as we didn't have a single entrepreneur in our family, untill my brother and I stepped up. So, I'll be sharing posts on how to build a small business from scratch.
My Past Experience
I have a fair share of experience when it comes to blogging and Blockchain. Previously I was working on another Blockchain where I am a well respected and a very successful blogger. I was the country representative of Pakistan on that Blockchain, a manual curator and qas also named the Best Author of 2021. It was from there only, I got to know about Hive. From then I started researching about this platform and finally I am here. Talking about my past experiences, I believe now it's time for a new journey. A better and broader journey of Hive blog. I made a lot of connections through my Blockchain experience. What made me sign up on Hive? Even though, I have been researching about Hive for some time now but quite recently I was approached by whom I didn't know personally. When I talked to him, I got to know that he is also a Pakistani and he told me that we don't have much Pakistanis on this platform and that he liked my honest and credible work so he gudided me a lot of hive and here I am. Now, I intend on becoming a full-time Hiver.
I have a lot of interest in crypto and trading as well. I have invested in a lot of different assets and I prefer scalp trading. I know some might not agree with me here but I believe if you're smart and quick enough, you can earn quite a lot profit.
I think, this ends my introduction post. In the end, I'd just like to say that I have a strong belief in work ethics and moral values. I consider it a sin to be involved in abuse, be it of any kind. Be it plagirism, reward pool abuse, content farmers or account farmers. I have always worked genuinely and purely from my heart. So whatever I write, it's always from the heart.
I hope to meet countless new people on this platform. Make new friends and connections, that'll stay with me for the rest of my life. I hope to have a good journey ahead on Hive and it'll be possible through my good content and your support.
See you all around
Regards,
Huzaifa Naveed
