Learning to make sacrifices, to conserve cash. I don't need top notch comfort. Just because I come from a place where the standard of living was higher doesn't mean I have go live the same way here. I.e, I jammed into a bus with hanging room only, for a total cost of 8 rupees, which is cheaper than a bus with AC that's 40 rupees, which is cheaper than a cab which is 300 rupees.
And food costs are going down, as I discover what is most efficient as far as nutrition to cost ratio. I'm having to relearn basic tenets of society, as it's a completely different world here, but I think I'm faring pretty well... it's as simple as monkey see monkey do. Some things are still a little ambiguous to me tho, but at least I'm recognizing what it is so I can learn later...
I feel like I am just throwing a set of knives in the dark, hoping one of them will hit the bullseye... when it comes to the direction I should be heading. I'm freaking clueless , and it's not an easy place to be. I'm so used to handling life as it goes, but now I feel a little thrown off my comfort zone regarding that area.. although being in a purgatory like situation would probably take its toll on anyone. I'll know soon enough, what the next step is to be...
Meanwhile, I just hope I'm not running BASE prematurely and wasting my time. The 6 stagers HAVE taught me that stage 1 is garbage clearing and instilling of core philosophies, so there's that too...
