Personal Principles and Values

From my perspective, there is learning at every step of life and being able to work on our learning can help us become a better individual. Every day, I try to live by my personal values, and ponder upon them before making decision. These principles and values are very important to me both in workplace and personal life:
1. Honesty - As said, honesty is the best policy and being honest with everyone is important. When we are honest, we build a positive character that allows us to be a good character and serve people during their difficult times. This applies to every working environment whether at home, being with friends or the place where we are working.

2. Hard work - I believe working hard is the most important value because if one has to achieve all the lavish lifestyle and live an enjoyable life, hard work is most important.

3. Practicality – Practicality is equally important as being positive in life. Being practical has taught me to make better judgment calls and be a more sensible person.

4. Well-Organized - I like to be well organized. Whether it is work place or at home, being organized gives me motivation to do continuous hard work. I tend write and plan my work accordingly and prioritize what is most important to least important. This helps me in achieving great results.

5. Leadership - A leader is one who guides, takes responsibility and motivates other individuals into right direction. Also, I believe that a leader is a motivation for others and inspires individuals to aim high and attain that aim.

Social Background

My name is Abdulhakim Alqahtani and I was born in Dammam city, Saudi Arabia. I am thankful to my parents that both being from a very small village in the South worked very hard, moved to a big city and gave me and my brothers and sisters an opportunity to learn and grow in different world. My Father being Businessman knew the value of education because during their times, education system was not as advanced as of now. As, I grew up, I realized that big city meant good education, bigger opportunities, and a positive way to work towards achieving dreams. After completing school and earning bachelor’s degree in Computer Engineering, I worked in an ARAMCO Company. This work experience made me more confident, self-motivated and also taught me to be more responsible.
