Developing a Personal Mantra


Its been a long long long time since we were here! 
Anyways, happy new year 2025! I’m looking forward to sharing more stories, reflections, and snippets of daily life here. Come to "sharing", last year I got to hear a thing about "mantra" from a friend and a mentor, and this is what I firstly need to share before we dive deep in 2025.

Mantras have a way of anchoring our thoughts and guiding our actions. As I approached 2025, I felt the need for a guiding principle that would not only inspire me but also provide a framework for how I navigate the year. That’s how I arrived at my mantra: Intentional Progress. This article shares my journey of developing this mantra and how it can shape my actions in the year ahead.

The Importance of a Mantra

A personal mantra is more than just a phrase; it’s a compass that aligns your actions with your values and goals. It serves as a reminder to stay focused and intentional, especially when life becomes overwhelming. For me, a mantra is a source of clarity a way to cut through the noise and remember what truly matters.

The Process of Choosing 'Intentional Progress'

The process of developing my mantra started with reflection. I asked myself key questions: What have I struggled with in the past? What values do I want to embody? What do I want to achieve this year? These reflections led me to recognize two recurring themes in my life: the need to overcome procrastination and the desire to prioritize what truly matters.

Lessons Learned and Future Aspirations

Developing a mantra has taught me the power of intentionality. It’s reminded me that growth is not a race but a series of deliberate steps. Each action, no matter how small, contributes to the bigger picture. For 2025, my focus is not on perfection but on progress, learning from setbacks, embracing the process, and staying true to my values.

Your Turn: Finding Your Mantra

If you’ve never had a personal mantra, I encourage you to try developing one for yourself. Start by reflecting on your values, challenges, and aspirations. Think about what motivates you and what you want to achieve. Your mantra doesn’t have to be perfect; it just needs to resonate with you and inspire action.

Here’s to making 2025 a year of intentionality, growth, and meaningful progress. Let’s embrace the power of personal mantras and make every step count!

Bye for now, I will see you as soon as I get something else to share with you. Have a blast 2025!

Hiking Day at Uluguru Mountains: A lot of reasons to conserve

Nestled in the heart of Tanzania, the Uluguru Mountains stand tall and proud, beckoning adventurers with their lush greenery, cascading waterfalls, and breathtaking panoramic views. As an avid nature enthusiast, I embarked on a hiking day at Uluguru Mountains, seeking solace from the bustling city life and an opportunity to reconnect with the pristine beauty of the natural world.    It was not a first time, and surely it will not be a last time. BUT, little did I know that this expedition would prove to be a transformative journey, both physically and spiritually.       The Ascent Begins With my backpack packed and a heart full of anticipation, I set foot on the trailhead around 10am. The air was crisp, and the sweet aroma of the surrounding vegetation infused my senses, drew my attention, that, it was time, time to get far and reconnect with the most beautiful and tiresome activity that am attracted to, accompanied by an experienced guide, not in such, but t...
