At the time I purchased the ticket, it seemed like a crazy idea and I wondered if it would be worth it.
I was expecting to learn a few new tips, get to meet a few new people, and as an engineer, feel awkwardly out of place in this crowd of content creators, influencers, media professionals, and people of knowledge.
And yes, it kinda was that. AND, on top of that, a few unexpected experiences along the way, too:
✅ inspired by the humble beginnings from authentic personal journeys of the influencers, how they recovered from failure, self doubt, and haters
✅ opened up a whole new world of possibility and inspiration, as I marveled at the amazing work people have done all over the world with millions of followers which I had no idea about, until now
✅ Gained practical, actionable insights that provided genuine A-ha! Moments that made me realize why I always feel stuck
✅ changed the way I see AI and technology in general, and feel that we left behind as our speakers
✅ huge diverse background of speakers and multiple creative formats to their keynote
✅ an amazing multi-feature conference mobile app that enables us to connect with fellow attendees, get conference updates in real time, systematically book workshops, and so much more
✅ getting to know new people from all over the world, and the different areas of expertise, opening the door for complimenting each other's strengths and niche
✅ feel a sense of courage and empowerment to double down our efforts even further towards collaboration and creating positive impact
Was it worth it?
Absolutely. It is one of the best conferences I've ever been to, and I'm glad I made that investment to experience this inaugural summit.
Alhamdulillah for the taufiq to join this wonderful event. May Allah grant us the strength and steadfastness to implement what we learnt and continue to benefit the ummah with this newfound knowledge and wisdom.
