19 hrs ago> I still remember the very first time someone trusted me enough to pay me for my design.
The amount wasn’t big at all. In fact, it was so small compared to the hours I spent on that design. But do you know what? That single payment changed everything for me.
Up until that moment, I kept asking myself:
– “Am I really good enough?”
– “Can I really build something from this skill?”
– “What if nobody ever wants to pay me?”
But when I delivered the design and they said, “Wow, I love it!” and sent the money… I realized three things:
👉 My skills have real value.
👉 Creativity can open doors I never imagined.
👉 This could actually be the start of something big.
Since that day, I’ve been improving one project at a time.
I’m still learning, still growing, and still building Dehmikay Designs into something bigger. Some days are tough, and sometimes I feel stuck. But that first client taught me something important:
You don’t need to be perfect to start. You just need to start.
If you’re sitting on your gift because you feel you’re not ready, please hear me:
Start now. Post your work. Offer your service. Your first client is waiting — and they could change your life forever.
