CSE 2022: Plan/ Strategy/ Daily Routine
This is an everything thread for all stuff 2022. You can post your daily goals, end-of-the-day updates, weekly targets or any weird thing you use to measure your progress. You can put into words & post the soul-sucking sadness that is threatening to devour you & your productivity. You can write what made your day & let others experience the happiness too, at least vicariously. This is a thread to pick each other up. This is a thread to keep each other accountable. This is a no-judgement zone.
--------
“This is one more piece of advice I have for you: don't get impatient. Even if things are so tangled up you can't do anything, don't get desperate or blow a fuse and start yanking on one particular thread before it's ready to come undone. You have to realize it's going to be a long process and that you'll work on things slowly, one at a time.”
— Haruki Murakami, Norwegian Wood
Could not revise environment sincerely, gave the test instead. This week will be all about getting rid of backlogs.
Targets:
- SFG: Test + Analysis
- Newspaper
- Finish Agriculture
- Environment Revision
- Miscellaneous tidbits
@Jammu good to see you here. Really appreciate the wake ups. All the best :)
February was good for the first 20 days and then it all went haywire. Need to ensure consistency. Had massive inertia to do anything yesterday so I did the SFG test, newspaper and substitute agriculture with studying the budget. No progress on environment.
Targets:
- Finish Agriculture
- SFG Test Analysis
- Environment (if tired, substitute with ES)
- Newspaper
- Plan for the month
Hoping for a much better march. All the best everyone!
Did not find time to do environment, will try to finish it by tomorrow now. Other targets done.
Targets:
- Environment (1/2)
- SFG Backlog (1/2)
- Newspaper
- Miscellaneous
Finished all the targets. Today seems to be a difficult day, will try to pivot from the bad start.
Targets:
- Environment (2/2)
- Finish SFG Backlog (2/2)
- Newspaper
- Miscellaneous
Going back to ambitious targets now or else I'll keep faltering. Today, I could not finish Environment (Barely touched it) but did the rest. Disappointing day nevertheless. By the way, thanks for the wake ups. Will try to do better tomorrow.
Targets:
- Finish Environment (2/2)
- Finish S&T Backlog
- Mock Test Analysis (if time)
- Economic Survey (1/3)
- Newspaper
Finished environment, did newspaper and started S&T. Could not touch Economic Survey or the test. Have to figure out a way to be productive post 6 PM, losing a lot of time!
Targets:
- Finish S&T Backlog
- Economic Survey (1/3)
- Mock Test Analysis (if time)
- Newspaper
Win finally able to finish S&T. Now onto the final set of NCERTs. Going to take a different approach in terms of doing economic survey and hope that it works out, no point in finishing old backlogs only to get new ones.
Targets:
- Medieval History (1/2)
- Economic Survey (10 Pages)
- Newspaper
All done. Could have done better but hopefully soon.
Targets:
- Finish Medieval History
- Economic Survey (10 pages)
- Newspaper
Couldn't complete yesterday's targets, was left with 2 chapters of MI. So finished them today.
07 March 2022-
-20 min meditation (done)
-The Hindu
-MI, about to complete, so 8 chapters today.
-Ancient notes revision (depends on time and energy)
@Archand what are your sources for snt?
Hey, sorry about the late response.
I'm going to do NCERTs + PYQ based googling + my old notes. Old notes comprise of mostly the monthly magazines from last year and whatever I would get from tests.
Do suggest if you think there's something missing :)
Sudden change in middle of the day, gave myself a half day off. This break has come after a long time. I zoom called my college friends, the laughter that followed was unprecedented. Fond memories !
Reviewing now - all done except opening the book Laxmikant.
Targets for March 7 (day 8)
1. Meditation 2x, DW
2. Laxmikant notes underlined - complete them anyhow. What is left, consider it left.
3. Newspaper, CA topic
Tomorrow is Monday, we will ensure its colour would not fade to Blue !
Monday was indeed colorful. Long live such days !
First half was lethargic. Picked up the pace in the second half. Towards the end, I watched MEA media briefings on Operation Ganga in their youtube channel. I believe IFS is very much a professional service. Even with limited resources at hand, they are doing things really well. All previous Evacuation Missions have enriched confidence in our Diaspora.
Reviewing now - Laxmikant challenge made it a long day. Considerable portions done, what is left, we will read after couple of weeks. Everything else done, missed the Cleaning Meditation though.
Targets for March 8 (day 9)
1. Meditation 2x, DW
2. Pre - Note making from Previous Year’s Mock tests of Polity; CSAT 2021 Paper
3. PT - transcripts on Home State turned UT, CA Topic - Operation Ganga
I also have some outdoor work in the evening, will try to clock in good hours of study somehow.
Looking forward to another good day in the week, kar ke dikhayenge !
