Self Awareness - a goal for 2025

Self awareness can also be a goal. The more aware I was of myself, the more content I became. I became more natural and more human while I also understood better where certain perceptions of other's came from

Journaling is now my hobby for growth. I'm yet to reach that ultimate "success" but I'm more self content than ever. With my profession of being a vet, journaling gives me clarity to balance life to a certain extent rather than being in that "busy", "chasing" mode all the time that is unnecessarily over-rated these days

Journaling comes in all forms. I decided to write how may day went while also keeping track of my habits that I want to work on, towards sustainable living while providing the same for pets

Currently I have almost 9 journals and they can be completed in less than 10 minutes every day. They include:

1. a daily to-do list

2. daily habit tracker (in dots): water intake, peace of mind, cleaning, exercise, food habits, upskill etc

3. my daily mood swing tracker (in dots): if I'm happy or not and why I'm that way

4. monthly affirmations

5. daily gratitude

6. monthly targets: not so strict on this as I let life flow in its own pace too, while I hustle

7. monthly recap

8. finance tracker: starting this year

9. monthly wins and gaps where it needs improvement

Try Journaling for yourself

Leptospirosis as a zoonosis

Leptospirosis awareness A timely topic as there's a Leptospirosis outbreak in the Northern province of Sri Lanka. I see a gap in the level of awareness on prevention and transmission regarding this topic although there are plenty of sources to explain the symptoms of the disease. It's vital to raise awareness on prevention of spread of the disease among the non-infected at a same level as of the attempts to cure the already infected individuas! Leptospirosis is a zoonotic disease - a disease that is transmitted to humans via animals Leptospirosis, also known as "මී උණ" in Sinhala is a highly contagious disease caused by the bacteria Leptospira The carrier of the disease is rodents such as rats, mice and even squirrels The carriers can transmit Leptospira bacteria to most of the mammals such as humans, dogs, cats, cattle, horses, wild animals and marine mammals How does the bacteria enter into an individual? There are several ways by which the bacter...

What took me to the UN

I was invited to the United Nations' International Labour Organization for a consultative meeting with the stakeholders of the entrepreneurial system to conduct a start-up ecosystem mapping for the first time in Sri Lanka on the 17th of January 2025 This is my first time to even go to the United Nations and I'm grateful that I was invited. In my invitation it mentioned that I was invited for the potential that I showcased as a young entrepreneur There were only four young entrepreneurs who were invited while the rest was about 50 other massive stakeholders and entrepreneurs themselves But, what exactly made me to the UN? I was pondering about the "potential" and yes, I think I figured out 1. social impact : aligns with 10 SDGs of UN From healing pets to creating industries, employment and promoting innovation, my work expands in the most sustainable ways 2. health impact : promotes longevity and sustainability of pets directly and human beings indirectl...
