Smart Sindara Sets Her 2025 Goals

It was the first day of January 2025, and the Harmattan breeze in Lagos made the air crisp and cool. Smart Sindara was sitting on the veranda of her bright yellow house, sipping a warm cup of tea. Her twin brothers, Timi and Tami, were chasing a football around the yard, but Sindara had something more important on her mind—her goals for the new year.

Every year, Sindara loved writing her goals. “It’s like having a treasure map for the year,” she often said. Today, she was determined to make her 2025 goals the best yet.

Armed with her favorite purple notebook and a glittery pen, Sindara sat at the table under the shade of a mango tree. She opened the first page and wrote, “Smart Sindara’s 2025 Goals!” She underlined it with three colorful squiggles and smiled.

Before writing anything else, she decided to brainstorm. “What do I want to achieve this year?” she wondered out loud. Her best friend, Ada, who had come over to play, joined her.

“What are you doing, Sindara?” Ada asked, curious.

“I’m setting my goals for 2025!” Sindara said excitedly. “Do you want to help?”

Ada nodded and sat beside her. “What kind of goals are you thinking about?”

Sindara tapped her pen thoughtfully. “I think I’ll split them into three parts: things I want to learn, things I want to do, and ways I can help others.”

“That’s a great idea!” Ada said. “What do you want to learn?”

Sindara wrote her first goal: “Learn how to code.” She had seen videos about kids making their own apps and games, and she wanted to try. “Imagine if I could create an app that helps my classmates with homework!”

Ada clapped. “That would be amazing! What else?”

Next, Sindara wrote, “Read 25 books.” She loved stories and wanted to explore more adventures through reading. “Books are like windows to other worlds,” she explained.

For things she wanted to do, Sindara wrote: “Build a robot” and “Visit a museum.” She loved inventing things, and a trip to a museum would inspire her creativity.

Lastly, Sindara thought about ways she could help others. She wrote: “Volunteer at Modupe Cole Home again” and “Start a school recycling project.” She remembered how much fun she had visiting the home during Christmas and wanted to continue spreading joy. As for recycling, she thought it would be a fun way to make her school greener.

By the time Sindara finished, her notebook was filled with colorful goals and doodles of stars and hearts. She closed the book with a satisfied smile.

“Wow, Sindara! You’ve thought of so many amazing things,” Ada said.

“Thanks, Ada,” Sindara replied. “But goals are just the beginning. Now, I have to work on them every day.”

As the sun set over Lagos, Sindara looked up at the glowing orange sky. “2025 is going to be my best year yet,” she said confidently. And with her treasure map of goals in hand, she knew she was ready to make it happen.
