I am a student of GVIG Sukkur.
Before the Light-F project, I had skills, but I had no plan to grow my skills and my business.
After receiving the sessions of Light-F project, I realized that a person without purpose and dreams in life also has no future. Then I thought, I must do something to make my future strong.
Later, I thought, why not utilize my skills and make a name for myself in my business and become an independent woman.
Then, I got admission to the Light-F project at GVIG Sukkur and learned a lot of things in the sessions. I also started a small parlor set up at home.
After filling the "Boond Boond Darya," I started to keep a record of my income and expenditure. I realized how many unnecessary expenses could be saved if I started writing those expenses in a booklet and tried to reduce them.
Earlier, I thought that starting a business requires a lot of money, but through the IG sessions, I learned that there is no age limit and no financial limit. Before attending the IG sessions, I was working, but I did not know the rules and regulations of business. After attending the IG sessions, I learned how to generate income, grow the business, and how to handle business complications and clients.
The cost and profit session was very beneficial for me because I did not know how to set the price for my services and products.
Previously, I faced a lot of difficulties in business and suffered losses as well. Then I learned how to build a successful business by implementing the 5Ps and how to promote the business.
We were taught digital marketing sessions and tips for different types of promotion for our products. After the digital marketing sessions, I realized that through digital marketing, we can also do business from our home using online apps.
The women's career session seemed very helpful, and new thoughts about new professions were highlighted to us.
In the financial literacy sessions, I came to know that even with small earnings and savings, I can seek help from the bank to grow my business.
The Light-F Project has changed our lives. Women have a lot of skills, but she should know how to utilize those skills in proper ways and at the right time.
When a girl is young, she depends on her father. When she is married, she depends on her husband. When she is old, she depends on her son. But I don't want to be like them; every girl needs to be financially independent.
Your identity will be defined by your abilities. Your life is your responsibility. You should realize that no one is coming to stand by your side.
Please grow up and stand up for yourself.
