I Failed 300+ Times, Then This Happened…

I’m ranked as the #1 Undergraduate student whose Research Paper published by Springer Nature and indexed in Scopus: an eye on global research in the New Uzbekistan University.

The journey to get there? Just like yours right now.

Failed over 300 applications as a Software Engineer
Participated in over 60 Hackathons and Lost
Rejected over 20 times for startup CoMed
Demotivated seeing other people achievements

But then, I found that it’s pretty oK to fail and being unemployed

I tried myself in diverse places and positions:

  1. Worked at early stage Startups (highly risky, but fun)
  2. Mentored & Facilitated developers and youth both beginners and professionals (over 200K people, 0 lie)
  3. Wrote pretty engaging and highly detailed tutorials about AI technologies, and tools (people LOVE, again 0 lie)
  4. Authored research papers, articles, and Stories (just interesting for me storytelling)
  5. Contributed to Open Source projects (just for fun, I tried at least)
  6. Spoke at Conferences and to Investors (even tho I’m introverted)
  7. Participated in over 60 hackathons, competitions, and challenges (could be even more)
  8. Built AI-powered projects in 6 hours using AI/ML API here https://lnkd.in/djiT3nE2 (access for free)

Of course, I can continue, but this post wasn’t about that)

My research paper: “Machine Learning Based Image Classification with COREL 1K Dataset”, now officially available on Springer here https://lnkd.in/daNUeSRQ (read for free)

You can't fail if you don't quit.

Love (someone who nearly gave up).

As the 1st AI/ML API Regional Ambassador in Central Asia. I’m sharing one week free access for first-time users: Use the code IBROHIMXAIMLAPI and go here https://lnkd.in/djiT3nE2

PS: Repost this post if you want a full breakdown (paper), live on stream (twtitch)!
PSS: If you read every piece of word, tysm. I crafted myself (0 AI generated)

Congrats on your achievement! Trying new things is so difficult and exhausting. I'm a beginner and sometimes I think a lot about giving up, especially when I see other people getting opportunities doing less effort, so reading posts like this renews my hopes.
