Hi All - This is Jameel from the lovely city of Toronto. Born and raised in Pakistan, lived in Dubai for 7 hears and moved to Canada 4 years ago. Throughout this nomadic journey I have made a pretty decent corporate career in supply chain and have worked for a variety of huge corporations. However I am increasingly frustrated with the time for money equation of life and don't see that changing if I stay in the corporate lifestyle. I am also guilty that early on in my life I had underestimated my early enterprenurial success due to lack of vision and poor thinking. Back in 2002 when I was still in undergrad school in Pakistan I built an ecommerce platform from scratch and despite the early days of ecom back then in the country I started making decent monthly sales and profits. However at that time I saw this only as a side hustle and shelved the whole business when I got a job at a huge corporation. Many years later the ecommerce sccene in Pakistan is thriving with Alibaba buying one of the big local ecommerce sites (that opened many years after my endeavor) for $150Million
. However now I am determined to bring the entrepreneurial spirit back and really looking forward to learning from this forum especially on practical examples of businesses that apply the 5 commandments.
