Today, I woke up really late. The reason was that I went to bed very late last night because I was talking with friends on a video call. Today was Sunday, and I spent my time cooking rice and aloo soyabean for lunch. I also ate three rotis and mustard potol sabji because I like Bengali food.


I am currently reading "Thinking, Fast and Slow" by Daniel Kahneman, and it is really a good book. Today, I didn't go outside, and I can summarize my day as cooking, cleaning utensils, bathing, and reading books.

I need to wake up early tomorrow to perform some morning rituals, exercise, and prepare food before work starts.

Goodbye.

Vivek

Outbursting thoughts | Part-1

It is 2:44 AM. My body is lying on the bed inside a locked room in a 33-story high-rise building, and I'm with my soul and skin intact, trying to figure out what my little brain is thinking. It's a thought or a line of thinking described in Don't Believe Everything You Think by Joseph Nguyen, or perhaps it's the 1st or 2nd system defined by Daniel Kahneman in his book Thinking, Fast and Slow . I'm not entirely sure, but at this moment, I could have slept. Instead, my little brain is racing at high speed. You might wonder what all this nonsense is, but yes, it does happen. It showers a warm wave of heat onto my heated skin, bringing me to misery. Is it a problem with my brain, or is there some energy surrounding me, or maybe inside me, that induces these thoughts? Is it this energy that calls my brain to think, crave, and dig up the buried soul? The soul, which I buried in some unidentified area within me, gets unearthed by my brain, prompted

Hello, my loveliest peeps, I am journaling early today because I have good news to share. However, you'll need to read through to the end for the reveal. Today, my day started at 11 am IST. I prepared buns and butter for breakfast, read a few pages of my book, and reflected on how household chores and office work are keeping me from going out. This has taken a toll on both my physical and mental health. It's often said that unbalanced chakras or energy blockages can cause such issues. Around 3-4 pm, I decided to cook something. I soaked dal and rice, added soya chunks, and put everything in a cooker for 7-8 whistles. Meanwhile, I mashed potatoes with tomato and garlic for a chokha recipe, fried some papad, and served the khichdi with dahi and achar. The good news is that I completed both the hydration challenge and the journaling challenge. Additionally, I started a fitness class today and attended the Evolve yoga session. It was great

My Daily Blog Hello my dear loveliest peeps, Hope you're doing great, safe, and sound. Today is the 6th day of my blog, and as you know, this challenge lasts for 21 days. I got up late this morning, around 9:30 AM, and had 7 almonds which I soaked last night. I started my day by drinking lots of water and preparing food for lunch. I did not have any breakfast as I was quite busy with office meetings. self-cooked For lunch, I had bhindi-baingan-tomato ki sabji and cabbage fry. I also prepared 3 parathas and had them for lunch. Afterward, I resumed reading "Thinking, Fast and Slow" by Daniel Kahneman. He mentioned a few things such as Add-1 and Add-3 tasks. I am still watching other videos to understand these concepts. I am not able to fully grasp what he wants to convey. The only thing I understand is that using multiple
