My story

Back in 2011, I joined my 11th class in the stream of Electronics after scoring good in 10th class.

That’s when blogging fever kicked in. I started plenty of blogs in Blogger platform and writing the sporadic thoughts in my head. I never treated it as an opportunity.

On the other hand, due to my digital hyperactivity, I was losing focus in academics. Chemistry was the subject I hated the most. I used to ask – “Why do I have to memorize so much? Why do I have to remember so much about the things that I’ll never ever use in my life?”.

I flunked 11th class Chemistry board exam! Reason? Not interested.

It was a gloomy period of my life. Because, I had no clue what to do in life, but I hated the subjects.

So I joined Diploma in CSE (atleast some specialization).

In the first years of Diploma, I got my first self-hosted blog. There I wrote about tech stuff, PC tutorials, YT videos, so on. Later I started GoBloggingTips realizing that I need to dive in a domain and I am limiting my potential by doing these general tech blog stuff.

Final year, got good score.

Got selected at PES University CSE, that’s where the real story starts.

At that time, I was earning quite a good money from my blog, but the university syllabus was slowly killing my blog in-front of my eyes.

I realized that my curriculum will definitely ruin my blog by running me out of time.

Moreover, I was not interested in getting placed in an MNC company, fixed to a certain salary, place, and schedule. I hate being employed.

I was depressed for like 2 months, not properly going to college, unable to sleep at night, unable to wake up in the morning, panic attacks about the syllabus, useless things to memorize.

I was like a bird in the cage, I knew if I am let out of this cage, I would fly high.

It was a hard time, a had not updated my blog for 4 months. In front of me day-to-day traffic was plummeting.

It all started here…

I dropped out of the university as it was ruining my business. Earning a degree is more or less earning a dignity; at least in India.

My old friends were asking me – “What are you doing?”. I would tell them “Blogging”. The majority of them looked at me like I’m a crazy-weird-kid. I thought – let it be.

Now the even big challenge for me is to grow and boost my income. I was a low earning blogger I used to earn $200/month.

Later I realized that I needed work from the inside. I attended an event called MMI that raised my income thermostat.

The things that I learned in the past 3 years is insane both in Digital Marketing, psychology and personal development.

I used to try and test different stuffs with unpredictable results. But now I’ve learnt how to play the game that I win for sure.

Fast forward to this day, I do what I love, blogging, teach others how to blog, and I also run a DM agency and also have a team working for my business.

This is all due to the quality information I got from my mentors, books I read and courses I enrolled for.
