The Foundation of Self-Made Series: A Meeting with SELF.

Every one of us has a lot of untold stories that have never been published in a book, on the radio or television, etc. That has the power to transform society in a multitude of social, political, and economic domains. Under the umbrella of the Wilsen Initiative (Wi) Skill Up Programme, I launched the Self-Made Series as a way to support young people as they navigate the path of self-discovery and self-realization and all that it entails in reaching their life goals.

I've learned that, even at our darkest hours, we can turn around and move towards realising our dreams in life—but only if we adopt an optimistic outlook, ask for help when we need it, and believe in our own abilities, to name a few. 

 What comes to mind when I think of self-made: personal story, self-care, self-love, introspection, passion, gift, desires, dream, talent, support pillars, vision, goal, the star, the pain, etc.  Self Made is about a deliberate intention to investing more in oneself to do more, be more and be different.

This is a process I have been practicing that has helped me understand more about myself and purpose in life that I would love to share with especially young people to help them define or redefine their pathway towards their own meaning of success. 

Self-made isn't about doing things alone and excluding the rest; it's more about recognising your efforts and your contribution towards the success of the team or personal project.

It is an introspection of understanding why, what, when, where, who, and how towards achieving a set goal. Self-made also advocates for knowing where and when you need support and reaching out to family, friends, and well-wishers.  

Self-made is a deliberate effort towards becoming a better version of oneself every day. I believe in the change that starts within oneself.
