HESAH ALTHUBAITI, 30 UNDER 30

I was a constant daydreamer, always lost in my thoughts.

I was not one to fall in line; I chose my own path, regardless of outside influences.

I am stronger than I thought

I am not a quitter.

I shall be a groundbreaking strategist

I shall not be just another face in the crowd.

I like it when I’m challenged

I dislike it when I’m limited

My biggest ambition is to be a role model for future generations—someone they can look up to and be inspired by.

My biggest worry is letting doubt hold me back from achieving my ambition

I am most proud of where I am today

I am a bit ashamed that I let time slip away without achieving more.

Looking back, probably I should have been bolder and louder.

Looking back, probably I should not have let my imposter syndrome get the best of me

It all fell apart when I took myself too seriously

Things made sense when I embraced simplicity

Eventually things will be shaped by our effort and determination

Eventually things will not go as planned or wished

Someone once advised me that true creativity lies in taking the complex and making it beautifully simple.

I once advised someone that if you don’t carve your mark now, it only gets harder with time.

If I had a superpower it would be mind reading, that will get me the best insights!

My superpower in real life is my blinding positivity

The word I use most is Yes

The word is dislike most is Viral, viral does not mean good.

This too shall pass is the sentence that gets me through most things

My most treasured passion is nurturing others and spreading kindness

People should be more willing to take themselves less seriously.

People should be less Boring

I wish to thank the people who saw in me what I never saw in myself.
