My Story – From a Small Town Boy to Someone Who Wants to Serve
Hello.
My name is Radhakrishna.
If you are reading this page, maybe you are looking for free AI tools, automation workflows, ready templates, or help to design your business. Or maybe you just clicked on “About” because you wanted to know who is behind UpcomingTools.com.
Either way, thank you for coming.
I want to tell you my story in simple words. The same way I would tell it if we were sitting together and talking. No big English. No fancy words. Just the truth of how a boy from a lower middle-class family is trying to do something useful for people who need help.
Where It All Began
I was not born in a rich house.
My real hometown is Palakollu, a small town in West Godavari district of Andhra Pradesh. When I was still a school boy, between the ages of ten and fifteen, my family faced very hard times. We had to sell our land and our house because of money problems. We packed whatever little we had and shifted to Hyderabad.
In Hyderabad my father started working as a security guard at an Axis Bank ATM in Gachibowli. Night after night he stood there, watching the machine, protecting other people’s money, while our own money was always short. My mother worked as a maid in two or three houses. She cleaned, she cooked, she came home tired, but she still smiled at me and asked if I had eaten.
I was an average student till my twelfth standard. Nothing special. Just a normal boy who somehow passed the exams. But my father never stopped pushing me.
I still remember his words. He used to say, “Study well, my son. This is the only door that can open a better life for us.”
Those words stayed in my heart like a small lamp that never went off.
The Dream That Took Three Attempts
I started preparing for the entrance exam to get a seat in IIT Mumbai.
The first time I failed. The second time I failed again. Many people around me started saying, “Maybe it is not for you.” But my father kept standing behind me like a quiet wall. He never shouted. He just kept going to his night duty and coming back with the same hope in his eyes.
On the third attempt, after so many sleepless nights and a few blessed days, I cracked it.
The day the result came, my father cried quietly. My mother held my hand and did not say anything for a long time. That silence was full of love. I joined the college with a heart full of dreams.
For one and a half years everything was going well. I was studying. I was learning. I was thinking about the future. Then one ordinary day changed everything.
The Accident That Forced Me to Lie Down
I met with a major bike accident.
My left leg was completely damaged. The doctors looked at me and said words that felt heavier than any stone. They said I needed permanent bed rest. They told me to go back home so that my mother and father could take care of me.
But how could I go back?
My father was already struggling to pay my college fees. My mother was working in other people’s houses just to send me the monthly money for food and rent. If I went home and became a full-time patient, the weight on their shoulders would become even heavier.
I tried everything.
I requested the college management. I wrote letters. I spoke to every known person and every big person I could reach. I begged them to let me study from home. But the rules were clear. Some classes had to be attended. I could not skip them forever.
The management was very kind. They gave me freedom for six to eight months. They understood my pain. They helped me more than I expected. But IIT Mumbai is a big institution. Rules cannot be bent for years and years.
I used to travel to Mumbai for treatment and try to attend college one or two times in a month. Slowly even that became impossible. I stopped going completely.
When the semester exams came, the results were not good. Some people may look at those marks and say I failed. But the truth is different. The circumstances were stronger than my will at that time. I tried my best. Yet the story became what it became.
I stopped my formal education when I was around twenty years old.
The Long Nights on the Bed
For two and a half years I was mostly on the bed.
Those were the darkest days. Pain in the body. Pain in the heart. Watching my parents struggle. Feeling useless.
But something inside me refused to die.
I used to lie there and think, “If I cannot sit in a classroom, can I still learn? Can I still build something that helps people?”
Slowly I started exploring the internet. I learned about websites, freelance platforms, automation tools, and AI. I began building small workflows. Then bigger ones. I started designing business architectures for people who needed guidance. I gave consultation. I made templates.
It was not easy. Everything was self-taught. Everything was done while my leg was still healing. But every small success gave me a little light.
After two and a half years of bed rest, my health came back. Today I am completely fine. I live with my mother and father in Hyderabad. I recently celebrated my birthday on the twentieth of September right here in Hyderabad. I am now twenty-five or twenty-six years old.
Looking back, those hard years taught me the biggest lesson of my life.
The Moral I Carry Every Day
The moral of my life is simple.
- Never give up, even when the world tells you to stop.
- Your circumstances can break your plans, but they cannot break your will unless you allow them.
- Family support is the strongest medicine. Friendship is the second strongest.
And one more thing – when you have suffered, you understand the pain of others better. That understanding can become your biggest strength.
The People Who Walked With Me
I am not walking alone.
Rajendra Nair is my backbone.
He is from Bangalore. We studied together at IIT Mumbai. He completed his B.Tech in Information Technology. When I had to leave college, our friendship never left. He is the one who finds leads from corporate companies and his communities and brings them to me. He is my best friend, my well-wisher, and in many ways my mentor. Because of him I could start this journey of automation and business architecture design. He works quietly from the backstage, but without him this work would not have grown the way it has.
Then there are two younger brothers from my own hometown Palakollu – Pratap Sharma and Kishore.
They studied at A.S.N.M. College in Palakollu (West Godavari, PIN 534260). They completed their B.Sc. in 2025. They are also strugglers. They shifted to Hyderabad recently. When they heard my full story, something moved inside them.
They came to me and said, “Brother, why only offline? Why can’t we start online services too? We are here to support you. We are your small brothers from Palakollu.”
Their words gave me new energy. One of them creates new workflows, design patterns, and business models. He is usually the first person of contact. The other one takes care of free services – replying to mails, attending calls, collecting feedback, and making sure people who need free help get it with respect.
Both of them learn under my guidance. Both of them get their biggest motivation from the story of how I stood up again. I am proud of them.
Why UpcomingTools.com Exists
For three to five years I served people only offline. Through known people, well-wishers, and repeated customers. Every month ten to fifteen leads used to come only because of loyalty and trust.
Then I realised something.
There are so many people in India who want to start a business, who want automation, who want proper systems, but they do not have money in their hands. They feel lost. They feel they cannot afford professional help.
I decided that if my life has given me skills, those skills should reach them too.
That is why UpcomingTools.com was born.
Here we build AI automation and custom workflows. We give ready-made templates. We design custom business architecture. We give business consultation.
And here is my clear promise:
If someone is truly starting from zero and really cannot pay, there will be no negotiations. Once I personally believe that the person cannot afford anything, the entire architecture and workflows will be built for zero Indian Rupees.
No payment model is forced on anyone. Everything depends on the real financial condition of the person who needs help.
I personally check every workflow, every template, and every article. Only after it is live, tested, and successful do I allow it to be published. That is my responsibility as the person who writes and decides everything on this website.
What You Can Do Like Me
Maybe you are reading this and thinking your own situation is difficult.
Maybe you failed an exam. Maybe your health stopped you. Maybe your family is struggling. Maybe you feel you are late.
I want to tell you something from my heart.
- You do not need a perfect degree to start helping people.
- You do not need a big office.
- You do not need to wait until everything is perfect.
- Start with whatever skill you have, even if it is small.
- Serve one person honestly. Then another.
- Keep learning while you are serving.
- Stay close to people who believe in you – family, friends, younger brothers who still have fire in their eyes.
And never forget the people who cannot pay. When you help them without expecting anything, something beautiful grows inside you. That growth is worth more than any money.
A Small Request from My Heart
If my story has touched you even a little, I have only one request.
Do not feel sorry for me.
Feel hopeful for yourself.
Use the free tools and workflows on this website. Build something. Start something. And if one day you are in a position to help someone who cannot pay, please help them the same way I try to help.
That is how a nation becomes stronger – not only through big companies and big degrees, but through ordinary people who refuse to give up and who refuse to leave others behind.
I am still learning. I am still growing. My father still goes to his duty some days. My mother still worries about me. Rajendra still finds leads. Pratap and Kishore still sit with me and learn.
And I still wake up every morning with the same thought:
“Today also, let me serve someone who needs it.”
Thank you for reading my story.
Thank you for giving me a chance to be useful.
With love and respect,
Radhakrishna
