Why? How? What?
People who work 8–5 jobs often complain about being stressed and hating their work. On the other hand, my friends and I work over 12 hours every day, yet we remain energetic, satisfied to the maximum level, and always over-perform. I wondered why. Was it because we had some hidden energy, or were we crazy? Then I realized that it had nothing to do with ourselves. It was because we always follow our passion. Personally, I’m passionate about helping people grow and helping businesses thrive, and I was always looking for a job where I could do what I love. This was especially important for me as an ADHDpreneur.
In Sri Lanka, companies typically recruit people with certificates and degrees and then assign them to a job role in which they are boxed into work. After a certain period, employees become depressed, and their outcomes gradually decrease. With my impulsive behavior, I got on a call with my friend, the co-founder of Aenigm3 Labs, to discuss the idea of starting a company. We had been talking about a venture together but had not been able to initiate anything properly. Within 10 minutes, we decided to start a creative agency.
I know you can find creative agencies in every nook and corner of the world, and it’s not a big deal. We decided to move forward with it due to several reasons:
We don’t think outside the box, we live there— Our team consists of people with ADHD, ADD & OCD which comes in handy when it comes to creative thinking.
It aligns with our life goals — We love helping people and companies grow, and we can do what we love while building a company.
Marketing will never die — Marketing is one of the most important parts of any venture, so having resources with us will give us leverage in our entrepreneurial journey.
Co-founders love giving opportunities — One of Aenigm3 Lab’s main objectives is to provide opportunities to people who are pursuing what they love.
USD pegged income for everyone. The Sri Lankan rupee has depreciated a lot over the last two years, and people are struggling as a result.
So we literally started a company to help people and businesses grow while offering passionate people the opportunity to do what they love and earn a USD pegged salary from it. That’s the story behind Aenigm3 Labs.
But what’s our competitive advantage? It’s simple! All successful companies are there because the founders were passionate about what they do. Therefore, who would be a better partner to grow their company than people who are passionate about what they do? Think about it! 😉
