Going on Good back to building from Zero

 Well things are shaping up well again started building again from zero, no idea why god choose me always to start again from zero, I don't know when my time will come, well life  us to say don't worry time will call and come. There is no substitute to hardwork, but apart from that you also need Lady Luck to smile at you.

Back again to starting from zero well going on well slowly building, getting clients again here in Dubai, well to be frank it has taken me back to 1994 when I use to stay alone in room cook and eat all alone just me and myself.

Well things have come back a full circle, staying all alone with me and myself, but still enjoying the loneliness and this loneliness is the strength that is keeping me alive with spirit to fight and come back just like they say phoenix raises from ash.

Well missing lot of things but these things are pushing me and making me more stronger, more than me more anxious of my son Naif becoming a Chartered Accountant I never waited for anything in life the way I am waiting for his result.

I would feel all my struggle reached a point and god rewarded me the day when I see him as Chartered Accountant and the CA sticker on his car.

Well lets wait and watch.

Dubai the land of struggle & dreams

 Hi life is good going on at least have my whole body in one piece, well got my residence visa of Dubai for 2 years, got a good swanky office in Latifa Towers Sheikh Zayed Road, at last got my Emirates ID and my bank account opened in CBD commercial Bank of Dubai.

Have decided that I need to settle in Dubai, well got partnership offer in a consulting firm which is 12 yrs old and always wanted to work with a woman of substance who has built this company centurion consulting, waited for 20 long years to work with her.

Have got good platform to showcase all the experience I have gained across the globe, well the intention for the first time in life is to make money, all these years I was just enjoying life but know have decided that earning money is more important as all happiness around you revolves on what you earn well I may be wrong but every one learns his own lessons from life.

The other reason why I have moved is to ensure that I make my son what I couldn't become Top Class Investment Banker, so by the time he completes his CA I would have built platform for my son to launch his life.

I want him to enjoy his life, I want to give all the happiness that I missed in life to him, but surprisingly blessed with a son who is like why spend lets save, never asked for anything, happy go lucky lad, I truly wish from my heart and pray that he should get the best in life and always happiness for him.

Nothing much to share just started new life again I think this will be my 5th rebirth, but well I don't mind starting again and again till I reach grave. there is a famous Persian proverb which says get up and get up no matter how many times you are stuck by lighting a point will come where lighting will get tired of striking you.

Just giving too much of Gyan well new journey new life will update soon.

Life has changed thrown to the lowest, but still standing like rock

 Its been almost a year got no clue how this one year passed, lot of turbulent times were faced and still facing, this situation has made me more stronger and resilient also learnt a lot as how to live when you have nothing in hand, today I understand the message which I had received 15 years ago which read, success of person depends on the way how he handles when he has nothing in hand and the way he handles when he has everything in hand.

lot of tough times but still 5N has survived, its not closed yes not earning as the way it use to happen and the dividends given to investors has stopped, but I am not running away, my past record and transparency I maintained when things were good has given me the face to handle all these problems.

Well no point in just writing about all the problems and troubles, in these times good things happened Daughter got Engineering seat in Government quota so didn't have to pay any donation, then one more thing happened Son cleared his 10th and he is interning with MOJ associates chartered accountants, he broke all the records, I got job when I was 19 years 4 months, but he got it at 16years happy for him, he wants to be Investment Banker, felt so glad that what I wanted to be my son wants to be that.

I am training him and giving him all the guidance he needs and best part is he has cleared his 1st year PUC with 72% boy who couldn't write answers to questions till 9th std scored this, he has become independent he paid his own fees from his earning, he bought his own smart phone and now saving to buy his bike.

He passing out was one more feather in my cap as I taught him and he cleared with his hard work, he is high in time sense nearly 10 times more than me, always planning to core details, got good observation skills which is essential for success.

Got new contract from January 2022 which is giving me the strength to come back, got back to Dubai for setting up clients unit, also got new clients from Dubai and also got one consulting opportunity, but problem is there is no timely payments from client. 

Atlast my dream of earning 32,500AED has come true its only matter of time I will be back to normalcy as have delivered revenue for the client and I am well on time.

Only dream left is ensuring my son gets 85% in 2nd puc and goes no to become investment banker I am going to give all my experience and life to ensure my son become investment banker. Then next is to ensure I clear all investments and be back to normalcy.

In these turbulent times 5N withstood test of time, got one more good news got my new matchbook air M1 and with 2  iPhone 13 Mini so I am back to get started, next step is to ensure 5n goes to Dubai. well lets see what happens and what not, but belief in Allah he will ensure back to glory days

Starting New revenue stream happy to be alive in these turbulent times

 ITs been turbulent times for individuals & business, the same being across India with all the problems that are being faced, well in these times also 5NBC has no defaulted even a single month on the dividends and earning and getting clients in these times only proves that business model is strong and knowledge being given to clients is worth for there payments, well its been two months since lockdown but things are fine with 5N still getting clients and revenues.

The best part is starting of new revenue stream, we have got clients who wanted us to do business research and suggest them the next course of action and this accidental client gave way for new revenue stream called as KNOWLEDGE PROCESS OUTSOURCE this revenue source not only gets revenue but also enriches me in acquiring more knowledge and at the cost of client, well this has been a boon in these bane times.

Rest is fine going on well what started as just for hobby has become full time bread earner, rest is fine going on no idea how long with these turbulent times last, but slowly and steadily 5N is growing when I look back to file ITR then is where I realise how much has been earned.

Next week when lockdown opens there will be much more challenges and hard times need to fight it out and come out of it thats what life has taught all these years.

Happy days

5N Business Consultants is now consultant to One of the Top 4 consulting firms

On February 15th will be date cherished for life till I die, when I founded 5N always had a dream to work with Top 4 consulting firms of the world, had always seen these firms from outside had heard about the work and the culture they have. After 7 years of founding 5N life gave chance to work with One of the Top4 consulting firms sorry cannot name as its part of contract signed. So officially 5N is a consultant to one of the Top 4 consulting firm. Then started the work the first assignment was to preparing strategy presentation to one of the Top channels, work started with lot of butterflies as getting adapted to new work style and thought process wasn't easy and also having been Founder CEO getting to un learn and learn was one of the biggest hurdles things didn't go smooth had problems with thought process and there way of thinking, there were times where had low morale and thought of quitting it and giving it up, then remembered life which had taught me never to give up and have confidence in myself. Well picked up all the straws of life and started and today when I got the observation saying well done and having learnt in fortnight gave me a also a chance to prove myself yes I am worth as CEO, as the saying goes YOU ARE GOOD ONLY TILL YESTERDAY be it a CEO of small firm or any big company the bottom line remains same.

Did stretch, did shed stiffness and yes back to normalcy and having learnt new things and new thought process did remember the lesson of EAGLE. Well not getting sleep as feeling happy for having proved myself that yes I can unlearn and learn.

This assignment will take longways  for 5N to newer heights, full charged up for tomorrow daylight

Survival Of the Fittest 5N in the process of adapting to survive

 I don't think even Darwin knew what he meant when he said survival of the fittest, well if he was alive he would have understood the practicality of it. Its been times which are testing the patience, the belief, the faith and hope you have in life. Building from ground zero is not that easy fine you can say wisdom words that when things get tougher the toughest will go forward all those are fine.

Building from zero where in only the shadow of yours is with you along with life it makes more tough to stand and withstand the change. Its been 11 months of the turbulent times 5N has not only survived but also ensured investors are taken care, sometimes wonder what am I made of every time I am pushed down and every time I stand up.

These times have given good reason to celebrate as so many consulting firms shutdown but still 5N is not only alive but also kicking. Yes lost all the buffer of cash reserve the company had accumulated for last 7 years, so today its like you are starting business with day zero and the only accomplishment is that you have 8 years of experience and this experience is going to make you count.

Only time will tell whats going to happen as fighting without life in these turbulent times have taught lot of things, learnt lot of lessons but still happy that life taught how to deal with turbulent times.

Tomorrow is another day you wake up alive then you got reason to fight, well nothing much to say its all about how long can you hold on
