This would be the last blog that I am writing as an Amal fellow but I hope I will continue my writing on this platform. So a journey with Amal Academy that I started in March 2021 came to an end! Amal Academy, the platform where I learned a lot, made new connections, got the meaning of my life, would always remain close to my heart. Besides working on your personal growth, I got a chance to work for the social cause such as a donations campaign for Edhi Foundation, a megaproject that helped my circle to build a welfare organization for the final rites of poor people to play a positive role in this society.

Though the last session was quite emotional for us and the time for us to say Goodbye but, it was full of learning and encouragement to move forward in life. My beloved instructors Mam Rabea and Mam Mishal have shared beautiful tips and pieces of advice on how to implement all the learnings of Amal in your life to grow in your professional fields. And I believe these were really awesome and gonna help me a lot in my future.

In my Amal journey, I made a lot of new friends, we called it the Amal Family and I would never forget them. These all are so caring, supporting, and motivating individuals who always help you to grow and excel in your life. Let me share my personal experience when I was facing some problems in project work and then I asked my fellow learners to help and they all welcomed and helped me to complete my project work for this week. Especially how I can forget my circle who worked as a team and completed the mega project in time.

Through this is the end of this fellowship but actually the start of a new journey. This is a time to implement Amal’s learning and in our lives and I already started implementing these in my lives such as speaking in front of the public, exploring new paths, taking part in a team, punctuality, my values, and principles, especially resume building and in-person CV drop. After adopting all these techniques I got multiple opportunities in my life such as becoming a youth member at UNA-Pakistan, a member of the International associations of Engineers, and this is just because of the learnings of Amal Academy and I believe these all things gonna help me more in my future.

Thank you so much Amal Academy for providing us with such a wonderful opportunity to make new friends, to grow and excel in professional as well as personal lives.

Thank you, Amal Academy!
