He did not have money to buy expensive courses, so his complete trust was only on ‘Youtube’. Without any hesitation, he started watching free tutorials on various subjects like coding, video editing, graphic designing and digital marketing. Sitting in front of the screen for hours, watching videos, making notes and working on practical projects on his own became his daily habit. Instead of adopting any kind of shortcut, he devoted his whole day and night to deeply learning that particular skill in which he was most interested and which was going to be in great demand in the market in future.
