Solo Travelling Day 2 | Kashmir Tour | Local sightseeing | Local Market | Local Garden | Pathani suit and Stoll | Amazing rainbow | 05/07/2024 23:48

Hello There, I hope you are at peace. Take a deep breath and calm your mind. The day started with a light breakfast, after which I went in search of an ATM to transact money. I was successful in withdrawing money. Although it was my plan to get a SIM card, I found the ATM first. A kind person accompanied me to the SIM vendor. We walked around a kilometer and he was very gentle with me. I got the SIM and planned to go for a ride to Dal Lake. I used the local ride application, using the OTP generated on my phone. The person who came as a cab driver suggested that I go for local sightseeing at a nominal rate. He took me to several places and negotiated the money as much as he could from his side. I visited a lot of gardens, mosques, dargahs, markets, Dal Lake, the Ghantaghar, and more. I tried several recipes such as Rogan Josh, Rista, Rice, etc. I found a uniqueness in the Kashmiri people - their smile on their red cheeks and their hospitable attitude. They seem to be less worri...

Reached Srinagar | Flight delayed | ATM card stopped working | Phone number stopped working | Biometrics locked | 4th July 2024 | 11:23 pm

Hello Everyone,  Hope you're amazing.  I got up early to catch the bus from Swargate and then from Mumbai walked 2 kms footstep to reach Domestic airport and then currently in Srinagar.  I met a person on flight and got some gist about the place and he was coming from Saudi Arabia and he seemed to be much helpful.  Upon reaching the Srinagar, I couldn't get a sim from J&K since my biometrics was locked and I can't get an OTP since it is out of coverage area.  The shopkeeper told me to get a new sim from City.  The problem doesn't stop till this point because my ATM card didn't work as well and I had not even 100₹ cash with me and it was night, a stranger in the city and whom to ask?  I requested the military personnel and he told me to go to other ATM, I tried to withdraw 5500₹ and the money didn't come out then I tried with 2500₹ still no response.  I felt unsecure what if the money has been withdrawn but it's not coming from machine that mea...

My Journey Hello everyone, Hope you're amazing! Today is very special for me. Having said that I missed the fulfillment of pursuing challenges, I gave myself a stronger challenge to step out of my comfort zone and rigorously use the muscular, emotional, and soulful aches to fulfill my purpose by traveling solo to Srinagar. The day was a complete rollercoaster. I suddenly thought of going to Bali while talking to a colleague, who shared an itinerary for Mauritius. Then, I spontaneously called a travel consultant, and amidst various confusing thoughts about Bali, Vietnam, and Cambodia, I ultimately decided on Srinagar. I booked the flight and thought to step ahead. The story doesn't stop here. It's already 12:30 am on the 4th of July, and I have a bus at approximately 7 am. I need to wake up by 4 or 5 at the latest. The motto of my life is to find what has been lost. I am looking back into myself to search for it, underst...

Another day spent well | Watched Inside out | 02/07/2024 23:16

 Hello everyone, Hope everything is fine at your end. Today I completed Journal, Leet code challenge and soaked almonds. Rest everything is pending. It's 4 day already spent without any exercise. I am not sure why I am not going again. I need to push myself and should continue going. Best, Vivek.

Another day spent in procrastination | Hoping to make it good tomorrow.

A normal day | 01/07/2024 00:34

 Hello peeps, Hope you're doing well. There's not much to share. No challenges today apart from Journaling. Rephrase: A well spent day with myself on a mission to give rest to body and reflect in Journal. I am happy to help a person by sharing the notes and he paid also. Sometimes, It feels really good to earn even a penny from places where you had never dreamt earlier. Life has improved a lot but I am not stopping here. I procrastinate a lot. One of the examples are cleaning the home, Placing things at right place and the most special one is going for an exercise. I learnt that 2 minute rule states that If an action will take less than two minutes, it should be done at the moment it's defined.” Simple, yet potent, this rule is a defense against procrastination and letting the small things in work and life add up.
