If I Can’t Touch It, I Don’t Spend It:

With each passing day, I have been increasingly feeling not enough. 

My workday is more sorted, thanks to my amazing workplace, I do not have to go to office everyday right now. My gym is just opposite to the road, my ability to pay more to save time has increasingly gone up. My milk gets delivered to home, I go to supermarket on Friday morning when its least crowded and most efficient. My work doesn't need me to attend mindless meeting, I have amazing access to the city's best resources. I have an amazing family, best people in the world as my friends who are like my brothers, a caring partner. Yet, I seem to be falling short of clock, a sense of unexplainable urgency, and a constant weight of stress.

And while i have tried most of the logical solutions, they doesn't seem to work. I am feeling a very deep urge to claim my time, and thinking space back in life. In short, i know its time to give up.

Going forward, my plan is adopt the elements of intentional and slow living. I have always loved to be my own test subject. In coming days i am going to run a number of experiments. The plan is to make my life totally old school.

Acknowledging my limitation, and I will be saying no to most things that might drain me. I have always been a go getter, and love to throw myself in a challenging situation, whenever the opportunity presents itself. From now on, i would be more careful and selective in what i get myself into. These are the new set of rules, I set for myself:

I am excite to share my two month old journey of switching to spending money in form of cash as far as possible. I have maintained a zero credit card payment in all my offline purchases. I have also significantly reduced the online payments via UPI, in whatever physical purchases that i make.

If you have any ideas or suggestions, please help me take my living to first gear.
