CSE 2021: Plan / Strategy / Daily Routine

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.

@nerdfighter  what's the reason behind uninstalling Spotify? Wouldn't it get too monotonous in a long run? I can't imagine myself keeping away from music. Few harmless addictions are a necessity imo. These craving can serve the purpose of rewarding yourself, helps you keep going.

Just trying it for a month. If it does add to my productivity, I'll keep it uninstalled. I spend a lot of time listening to music and podcasts. This has freed like 2-3 hours of my day. I can still listen to music on desktop (though i have blocked most music websites too), but there is a lot of friction. So, my music intake has reduced. I'll give an update in a month.

Anyway these matters aren't in our hands. It is the goddess of productivity that does everything. She giveth & She taketh away. xD 

I listen to music while studying/walk and podcasts are my lullaby, that's why no extra time is spent. xD




Would be waiting for the update.
