We are the creators of the future!

      We know that the 21^st century is an era of intellectual development. The uplifting force of this development is young people, that is, people with high intelligence. Of course, today there is a great responsibility towards the creators of the future. After all, according to President Shavkat Mirziyoyev, “In order for our youth to become independent thinkers, have high intellectual and spiritual potential, become people who are not inferior to their peers in any field on a global scale, our state and society should be happy. We will mobilize all the possibilities of strength”, his words serve as a program for us. Being among such young people, I am proud to see the development of our country day and night. In my opinion, it is natural for every person who considers himself a child of the new Uzbekistan to have a question at this moment: how did I contribute to the development of my country?! Whatever I do, even if it’s a little, will benefit my people?! In order to find answers to such questions, I took a pen in my hand and began to write down my goals on a white paper.

First of all, as they say, “A job without a plan is a brick without a mold”, a person should make his plans so that all the good deeds he thinks about from early in the morning will be good. And the plans become more and more great goals. And I strive for not daily, but annual prospective goals. I want these targeted plans to serve not only me, but also the development of my country.

Secondly, no country can rise without sports and science. These two concepts will always accompany me. Of course, sport is a guarantee of health. Every young generation who plays sports follows a healthy lifestyle. Only healthy and strong youth can protect the country. As our elders say, “If there is knowledge, there will be greatness”, even a young person like me in the ranks of the youth of Uzbekistan will mobilize all my energy to acquire knowledge.

Thirdly, it is the effective use of the doors of opportunity created for young people and, most importantly, the supreme gift of time. “If you love life, don’t waste time, because time creates life,” said one of the philosophers. Today, the lives and work of famous people who have achieved great success in their field show that one of the main keys to their success is their ability to allocate time correctly. If time is spent in vain during the youth years, the opportunity to gain knowledge is also lost. Our today will become history tomorrow. The services and happy deeds of each person for their people will be forever imprinted in the history. Therefore, we, the creators of the future, appreciate our time, which is more valuable than gold, and achieve high goals!

It should be said that young people who are in tune with the times are leading in every field today. Of course, it is impossible to count the opportunities created for us today. I would like to put forward a proposal to hold the traditional republican competition “Sprouts of Future” in order to pay attention to young people capable of achieving greater goals and in order to support young people in every way. Because, you say, there are many different auditions. However, unlike them, this competition is organized among young people who have achieved more or less success in the field of science and education, literature and sports and have limited opportunities to show their talent. Because they, like you and us, are the bright future generations of Uzbekistan!

In conclusion, it should be said that we, the youth, are the hope of a great country. If we don’t waste time and fulfill the huge task in front of us wholeheartedly, no crowd, no foreign ideas can stand in our way. Everything is in our hands. After all, as our President said, “We have set ourselves the great goal of establishing the foundation of the Third Renaissance in our country, for this we need to educate new Khorezms, Berunis, Ibn Sinas, Ulugbeks, Navoi and Babur!” We are the worthy successors of such ancestors and will be the mirror of the future of New Uzbekistan!

Dreams come true.

Dream, plan, make that plan a goal.

I personally had a dream, when I was in kindergarten, I dreamed that I can do as my aunt’s daughter when her daughters met the president and received the state award named after Zulfiya as the world and Uzbekistan champions. Even when I was in school, I had a dream, but I didn’t know how to make it happen, and in the 5th grade, I learned how to plan, and I made videos to motivate myself. When I was in the 8th grade, when the Is’haqkhan Ibrat school was opened, I was assigned to study and entered the 15th place to the school. In 2018, one of my dreams in kindergarten came true, that is, by the grace of God, I shook hands with the President of Uzbekistan Shavkat Mirziyoyev on May 3, 2018, and I set my plans as a goal. I focused on my goal and didn’t even listen to the people around me.

After some years, I graduated my school and enrolled at Uzbekistan State University of World Languages, another dream came true, because I became a student of my dream university. I did not stop saying “my dreams have come true, that’s it”, I strengthened my efforts in order to properly use the opportunities given to young people due to their language skills, and until now I have been a participant, coordinator, organizer, and volunteer of many projects. I am blogging because of my interest, I have been sharing my achievements and my knowledge of how to have these achievements for more than 1000 young people. In addition, I also made students through my personal projects.

About loneliness

I was chasing a rabbit around the apartment

Throughout my whole dream last night

In a hurry I broke glasses in vain

And banged my head on the poles

The rabbit was always faster

That white noble rabbit with glasses

What would make the perfect pet

He always looked one step ahead

He didn’t smell and he wasn’t scary

When I saw that I was too short to catch him

I was looking for a hole to crawl into

Because there were never any magic potions in my house

That’s how I would trick a rabbit

Maybe he’ll follow me into a cool fairy tale

On the TV they broadcast devastating and relentless

spring rains

I should never have trusted the spring rain

Nor that there is a hole here in which I can save myself

Before I turned off the TV.

Before I woke up.

And drank the first morning coffee.

I don’t know why I’m smiling so much,

And the morning has just begun

It’s just that my siphon broke again.

And my home is being soaked in strange waters

Foreign worlds

You have no right to complain, I’m telling to mine

interlocutor for whom I prepared a cup of coffee.

Love, let’s go buy a rabbit

He answered before calling the repairman

You’re too lonely, and it’s been raining for days.

I’m afraid for you, he said before I could

say anything.

During his life, a person encounters various obstacles, stumbles, falls, and at the same time learns to stand up and realizes that life goes on. These stumbles and failures mature a person. The more a person stumbles, the more experienced he is. Hikmat, who doesn’t want to face such obstacles, does something and if it doesn’t work out, he doesn’t try it again. He is afraid of failure. He was afraid to try new experiences. At night, he made intentions that I would not face any obstacles and that all my work would be successful. As if his intentions were fulfilled, he looked forward to all his work and succeeded in everything. He found his profession. He got a house and a car, got married. As if he lived without any obstacles or shortcomings. He would not have the stumbling blocks that everyone has. He achieved all his wishes. Life without obstacles was only in him.

One day he made a small mistake at work and was afraid that this mistake would turn into a big one. After that, he deleted the necessary documents from his office computer as invalid and lost his job. After that, one unlucky day began to pass. these days have come too. His life has completely changed, and he started dreaming that it’s all over for me. He was very backward and lost everything. And he met a good person. He told the man what he had seen. A wise person said, “You believed that you thought good things, that’s it. You thought bad things, and it turned out bad. This is life, my friend. When you encounter obstacles, try to think only about the positive and the good side. The main thing is not to stop moving. If you fall, get up again, then you will succeed one day. What they said, think that it was for goodness.

You No Longer Have Hands 


To destroy the journals I had kept for years 
I feel ashamed to read my sorrows with a 
language other than my mother tongue.


Beautiful silky skin and blue watery eyes are 
the reasons why my disappointments are restless.
In my shadow, I see myself free from the coffin
Yet, everyone dies when I pretend to be asleep.


 I jailed my poems, my tales, and tears in my heart.
The prisoner asks if I'm ready to close my eyes
I give him my watch “Take the time and slaughter me”.
You'll peel my skin and sip my blood in less than a year.

You no longer have hands to bury my dream yacht
O Baghdad, why am I in the blues when I feel like a 
dead soldier in exile, or a stranger in Montreal corners 
Lots of bare hands with blood splitting on my sad face.

Bleeding Heart Poet 

Knowledge gained from books read.

Everyone has read at least 10 books, because books have their place in life, and I have read many books so far, for example, secular, religious, business, psychological and leadership books. Each book has its own knowledge to give to a person, and I can easily say that through the information in the book, people gain experience in their lives. Personally, from the book I read about business and leadership, I learned skills that can be used in life and can easily get out of problems. Through this knowledge, I am currently working as a participant, coordinator, volunteer, leader, organizer of many projects. Even through my personal project, I trained more than 20 students and shared the knowledge I got from books with about 1000 young people.

In addition, I have proven that exchanging ideas while reading a book, freely expressing one’s opinion, and developing a world view gives knowledge, the reason is that during conversations with many people, when we exchange ideas, they ask me the following question: “How many books have you read in your life and what books do you recommend?” that I feel that I have easily read a lot of books because of these questions.
