Araña grew up with an older sibling. In a 2016 interview with IBMC, Araña recounted the challenges his family faced during his childhood despite growing up in the generally well-off city of Pasig. His family struggled financially and depended on his father's meagre salary and his mother's commissions as a freelance agent. They endured "hard times" during his early years.

He didn't begin life with many advantages. Hailing from a working-class family, he was raised by a carpenter and a freelance agent, without the benefit of a "silver spoon" to fall back on. Nevertheless, he was resolute in his determination to forge his own path in life, and Singapore's abundance of opportunities provided him with the means to do so. He remains unwavering in his pursuit of success, fueled by a deep appreciation for the support and opportunities that have helped him along the way.

He believes in the boundless impact of humanity. Through a simple message, a helpful service, or an act of kindness, he understands that it is possible to transform someone's life, or even an entire society. He recognizes that a sincere message can prevent significant mistakes, save lives, restore broken families, change someone's health perspective, and help grow a business. He is driven by the desire to create a positive impact on society, but he knows that achieving this goal requires effective communication of his message to those who need it most.

In terms of his personal interests, he enjoys simple yet diverse activities, from peaceful travels to lively get-togethers with friends. Music is a constant source of joy for him, with lyrics and melodies always present in his mind.

As he looks toward the future, he envisions himself continuing his passion for IT, updating plugins at an outdoor cafe even in his senior years. However, he remains fully committed to his creative side and sees himself as a lifelong lyricist, never straying from his artistic pursuits.

Love, Life, Success Desires
I don't have all the answers. In life, I've faced as many failures as successes. But I cherish my wife, I love my life, and I genuinely wish you the same kind of success I've found.

This reflects my self-awareness, acknowledging the ups and downs of life. I admit to both failure and success, emphasizing the importance of love for my wife and appreciation for our life. The wish for my listener or reader to experience a similar kind of success implies a desire for fulfillment beyond mere achievements, rooted in meaningful relationships and contentment. In God We Trust.
