Priority: Buy The Helmet.
I think my head is a little too big for size M of a helmet in the Decathlon stores. I should consult someone who is regular in cycling (biking for the people from the other side of the world) to get one.
The way things ended in my job was thoroughly unpleasant. As a consequence, I don't have my contingency fund to live on. I will have to borrow money on loan. Initially, I thought of getting an MBA degree. But that's too much of money borrowing, and MBA is way too conventional for a person like me. So I am going to borrow money for a period of six months. I am giving myself 6 months. No questions asked. Nothing to worry about. This total freedom comes with the sole responsibility of living within a fixed amount of money that I will have to repay.
I am going to lay a few rules for myself to achieve the discipline that I have always yearned to have.
1. No eating out: Until I have a steady source of income. The only times I am allowed to eat out are if that food is supposed to be something I have earned. For example an internship or the types that only provides free food. Even this cannot exceed one a month. Simply because too much outside food is by no means good for health. So no drinking even tea out of the house. Not even if anyone is paying for it. Special no-no to free food hosted by others. No adding on debts. Another exception is if I get to travel. I could carry dry food from home. But let me just keep a buffer here. This also includes the not particularly pocket-friendly items that come in a packet. Packaged food undoubtedly contains preservatives. Eliminating this itself is a big task and a leap in good health.
2. No car: Save on petrol. Ride a bicycle instead. Don't take lifts from people and add on to debt. Unless my health is so bad that I cannot ride the cycle, I am not allowing myself a car ride. This also includes Ola/Uber/Auto. If I have to buy something from really far away, I'd better think several times. I am providing an exception for Monda Market, where I go to buy groceries, veggies, etc.
3. No adding on debts: In cash or kind. No adding on debts. Be as kind as possible to people around. Don't take obligations from others. Don't donate when you are living frugally. Be gentle to people, make good friends.
4.Productivity: This period just cannot go to waste. I should be confident in answering myself of the time utilized. Productivity has to be at its best.
5. Disciplined sleep schedules: It is easy to sleep during the day, and disturb the night sleep, and cause a chaos. Too much or too less sleep are both harmful. A well organized disciplined sleep is imperative.
6. Work on the bucket list.
I could add more. But I shall stop at 6 things to adhere to for the 6 months.
