Hello 2021 aspirants. I thought it would be nice if we can share what we are doing and intend to do with one another here.
This could be a thread for discussing everything prep for 2021.
No one method fits all but to see the plans and progress made by fellow aspirants might help with the finer details of preparation and also keep one on track.

Meditation is not about stopping thoughts or maneuvering it. Its just about watching the train of thoughts in compassionate manner. And be ease with whatever arises in mind. It requires training just like developing any other skill.
@nerdfighter are you someone who fights against nerds or are you just a nerd who also happens to be a fighter? :P
I have been using theBrain focusapp for more than a year now. It has worked really great and easily customizable too. I have divided the topics into two categories- gs and optional. For optional I have set the study time to be 80 minutes and gs 55 minutes. It helps in analysing the long term productivity as well (though, not of much help but a fun task to do in free time :P).@nerdfighter You're doing so great! Keep up the intensity!

I use forest. If you need recommendations, there is another app called productivity challenge, which is also good. Forest is just more flexible.
And thanks. Let's not jinx it. xD
Also, it helps by locking some particularly distracting apps (as set by us) during study sessions.
