Sauratra - Day: 1 - Easy Peasy

The Day 1 of the Sauratra has just ended. It was a pretty easy day first day actually. Slept through the night, woke up and immediately went to this work related event. Came back in the evening, dozed off for a while and just to get a feel of ‘Saturday Night’, went out for ice cream.

No booze. No cigarettes. 24 hours. Good progress I’d say. And today being a Saturday. I’m happy.

But it is just going to get tougher each day. Summers approaching fast, beer will be a necessity throughout the months of May and June. A couple of long lost friends are coming, a couple of birthdays here and there; how will I stay off the booze then? And worst of all, EURO 2012!!! A whole football tournament without beer! How is that even possible!? And perfect timing. The final match of EURO Cup is on the final day of the Sauratra. 1^st of June. Perfect timing I’d say. Well played God of luck.

But that’s just a small cost I’d be paying for the world of benefits I’d be getting if I successfully go through with Sauratra.

Stay tuned for daily updates. And for hourly updates, follow me on Twitter @rachitmaya.

Join the movement if you want. Anytime. Everybody is welcome. Need all the support. Together we can achieve a lot of things. Be it quitting smoking/drinking or maybe you want to go to the gym or even finish a long due project, it’s all happening here at Sauratra.

And all the detractors, please continue laughing at this attempt, as it will only make me stronger and more motivated. As Peter Griffin once said “Whatever kills me makes me stronger”. Amen to that.

Cheers!
