Explained perfectly. In general this should be the mindset of entrepreneurs.
Can I add something to it?
Skills you can learn that saves your time and help you in long run to earn more:
Typing:
Learning to type fast is essential as slow typing eats up more time.
Time is money. The more you save it the more you have it.
Coding:
Just basics like html, php etc. You don't want to spend a lot of money on just customise your website. Learn even if you don't have a website now.
Speed reading:
Just like typing, you need to make conscious effort to learn speed reading. Lot of videos here on UA-cam about it. It helps to research quicker, skim through irrelevant information and grab on important points.
English proficiency:
The quality of your work depends on how you play with words. You cannot call yourself a writer if you are not a not constantly recording new words. Read books, fiction, nonfiction, articles, watch movies with subtitles. Learn how natives use certain phrases, their slang, jargon etc. Journal everyday. Write being creative (for yourself) read it, pick out mistakes and repeat.
If you want to grow in any language there should be a consistent input and creative output. When you converse, make sentences in your head, speak them, analyse if you sound correct, your brain starts accept it like your mother tongue (I learnt turkish that way)
(Some many here have common hindrance i.e english as second language, that's why wanted to say)
Books for new entrepreneurs:
4 hour work week.
Rich dad poor dad.
Show your work.
Linchpin (or other book by Seth Godin)
Once again Khalil, nice job. Doing a great work.
This is such a valuable comment! Thank you for adding value to the community.
Ps I love the books that you recommended...they are truly amazing for everyone who's interested in entrepreneurship!
Thank you very much..
loads of love
Great information thanks
There's one more book ...Screw it, Lets do it by Richard Branson. It is an absolutely amazing book for entrepreneurs.The book gives you the skill to find gaps in the market and drives one to live life to the fullest. Loved it!
And thank you so much for your videos Khalil. 😊Thanks a ton!
Hey everyone! What do you guys think of the intro clip? It's a small edit but I'm so proud of it because I didn't know ANY video editing before I started this channel lol.
Also, bought a DSLR so the footage is clearer and the camera isn't hunting for focus every time I move abruptly which should improve the viewing experience (hopefully)
I want to take help from you regarding fiverr. kindly help me
Did you use adobe after effects to do that? It seems like a pretty simple edit but def keep experimenting with video editing, it'll really improve the quality of your videos!
The short intro clip is amazing. 👍 A good surprise. I really like it.
You edit like a pro. 😄
It was cool!!
i need to talk to you personally, i would be very pleased if you share your email, thankyou.
Started content writing by watching your videos.
I got a client in Pakistan who trains and pay me 0.4 per word. I'm happy with it as it's my first month to learn and apply these tactics for freelancing.
You just need to start...
Don't compare yourself with highly paid writers, otherwise you'll quit soon.
How do you find clients? I am in various facebook groups but most of them want business/tech writers.. any advice?
@@yousafali9867 okay! Thankyou for your response 👍
How to find clients on linkedin ? I am trying so hard on fb but there are scams everywhere😑... do we have to search through hashtags on linkedin ?
How to send writing to client? In pdf format?
@@english9483 No, if the client wants a sample, then you should have a published sample. Write on any topic of your choice and publish it on medium.com. ..its free ..and will be published by your name.. then you can send the link of your writing to your client
This guy is so caring and humble. I wish I could be like him.
Abu hi bna lo isse
Modest person from pakisthan and lots of love from India

Yes, true!👍💯 Upwork supports experienced ones more.👍💯 .... Clients ko find karna aur phir hold karna aur iskey baad improve karna important hai .... Also, one should keep improving consistently!👍💯 STAY BLESSED AND PROTECTED!🤲💯 AAMIN SUMMA AAMIN!

These videos are very helpful for me..why he is not making videos these days...
I really like your videos because you deal with very simple way like a human not a fortunate one.due to you I compelled my self to do content writing.I always search how to write but no body told me the way.jaxak Allah
Dear everything is all right, but also, please write some bullet points in your descriptions....
Another great video 👍. Fixed price suits me mostly as a freelancer designer.
Wa alekum salam and lot of thanks for teaching.
Thanks for the video,bro
Thanks to being my all time mentor.❤
Khalil Bhai Myn apki har video full attention sy dykhta hoon. Ap Please FB Groups Bta dyn
I think it's a coincidence that the two persons I am following on UA-cam both talks about website generation. Well I am already working on it. Firstly I started with free sites and now moving towards domain registration.
And like you said, journey goes on step by step.
Thanks for a wonderful video.
P.S. Nice birds collection though can't see them in reflection :-D I hope you will talk about them in your personal Q & A video :-)

Please make a seperate and detailed video on resume design
$100 for 1500 words blog! I am currently writing 3000 words blogs at $12 and the employer is American :D Great video Khalil, I started taking content writing seriously after watching your videos and made Rs 50,000+ in 2.5 months of work.
Hey Maaz, that's awesome progress!
Remember to keep growing. Find more clients on the side. You can easily be paid $30-50 for the same piece. It'll take a while, but reaching $100 won't seem that far-fetched a few months from now IA :)
Hello maaz I need to ask a question....u have a fiver account r up work ???did u mention your country pakistan r united States for these clients??hope u would answer.
@@hafsaabbas3464 I have a Pakistani fiverr profile. Always build trust, don't make fake profiles of another country to deceive clients, this won't give you success. This is my observation.
@@maazkhanbondior thank you
MASHALLAH SIR LIVE LONG...... THANKS..
Thanks a lot. U r guiding us step by step. I want to get success by following your guideline. Thanks again.
This is also amazing video and you said that you will make video on how to make Portfolio and where yes definitely we need it bro...
"Pakistan sy bat shuru kron ga BECAUSE I'M PAKISTAN MYSELF"
THIS IS WHAT... WHAT MADE US PROUD.. 💜
(Ofcors we rspct all orhr countries too)
But the feel these wrk give hits different...
#Qna Upwork is experience-friendly platform so how you gained experience. I mean on which platform you used to sell services
very informative videos... im a beginner.... i have to start work.... your videos are very helpful to me.... JazakAllah
Aoa.ap mari inspiration ban gay ho..Allah ap ko hifazat ma rakhy or mazeed kamyabion sa nawazy.ameen
Mujhy ap sa pochna tha k upwork pakistan aik registerd compney ha ..ma ny data entry k liya apply kia tha lakin registration fee k bad unhon ny koi response nai diya..ma ap ko bta nai sakti k ma buri trha maius hoi hon..
Khalil Bhai I have learn so much from your vidoes. Thanks Alot for all of info about Content Writing nd Freelancing.👍🏻
Thanks for sharing such a nice video
I really appreciate next time your video will be about portfolio. I always wanted this one. Thanks in advance. Even I am in favor of fixed payment and not hourly rates.
Asalam o alykum Bhai just got the notification and I'm here hit the like button and now watching😋
When i first started writing articles, one of my client offered me only 30 dollars for 20 blog posts for almost more than 1600 words per blog post.
I rejected his offer asap. (in a polite manner) and what he said was
''You pakistani people are just like that''
Its not just $100 per post. It's also about volume of work! Imagine doing $100 per post with 5 posts a month compared to $50 per post for 30 posts a month.
very informative and comprehensive video
پاکستانی انڈسٹری کو کیسے فولو کرینگے؟ اس پر بھی ایک ویڈیو بنا دیں۔

Hey bro, i have a few questions
1) I dont know much about your english but my english sucks, so how i can improve it?
2) How i can be confident in the begining because there is a high chance that i will mess up first time?
3) Is it important to write sample articles first ? If yes, than on which topics i should write and how many sample articles are required and what should be the length of one article?
I write an reviewing article for just 0.12 rupees per word. Is it good or bad? And also I write up to 3500 words, and it ranks too.😭

You are doing great job.
Thamks for sharing such videos.
Brother may you share some sample for guidance about content
Hey khalil,
You are really doing excellent work and i hope you will keep doing such work in helping the students( who eagerly want to be self sufficient).
But there is one thing like a screeching sound or may be it's kind of some bird's voice which seems to be annoying when one listens to your words with complete focus and concentration. Please don't mind and i hope you would resolve this matter soon.
A new subscriber of yours. Stay happy and stay blessed.
Thanks
U look so cute , without glasses 💟💟
Listen brother?

Hello, I am a little confused with downloading your ebook, it is not going any further than verification. Can you please help.
100000 likes for each video of khalil shb😍😍😍
Assalam o Alaikum Khalil,
First of all, your videos are AMAZING they're very much helpful so thank you loads.
Secondly, I have a question to ask.. that is how do we approach companies DIRECTLY? How can one find potential companies to apply in as a freelancer?
Bro I am 15 year old so how can I recieve payments? Is it possible for teens to make a bank account? Any solution except using parents bank account. (bcz parents aren't allowing to use their bank account as they have heard of online scams)
Khalil tum pakistan kyun rehtae hoe. Delhi mae kyun nahi rehtae. Your way of speaking is very impressive.. You have impressed me as a person. Keep it up. I will try myself to change like you. I hardly get impressed with anybody. Thank you
