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

Hello all..I know this thread is just for sharing some "educational stuff"...But somehow I felt I really need to share this with you guys..!! ( Some of you may find it relatable)
You know what people.. have told you all back on track ..will be regular ye wo everything..But I am not able to do jitna Krna chahiye mujhe iss time.. My life is a complete mess right now..
I have no control on my emotions..Anger.. happiness..upset.. (everything is just mixed..)
Frustration is at its peak..Have planned a lot but what am I doing?? My day starts at 9 but when I ask myself daily at 11 ki aaj kiya kya tumne to bas newspaper aur thodi bahot aur padhai..
Feels like I am lost somewhere..Fact is " kuch bolne ka bhi mann nahi"..ye likhne se pehle bhi I thought a lot but lga ki aap sab se kaisi sharam..:)
Why have I lost all the positivity??why am I not calm? Why am I not able to focus even if the book is right infront of me..!!
( Well this is one of the reason of not being on YPT cz I am not in my senses I guess)
I just want stability right now but nothing is going good.. bad times or what GOD KNOWS..
BUT I have written what all is going on.. can't say I want help cz it's all in my mind..I guess need to help myself..!!
Itna hi kehna tha bas..:)
- STILL LOST...:)
GOODMORNING EVERYONE..:) SO Good to be back here after 4-5 days( I guess)
Went through all the chats.. Firstly WELCOME TO THE GROUP( jinhone abhi join kiya) and Secondly So Good to See you guys..completing your targets and getting your work done..!!

Hello Folks
Longtime now, I was just trying to do stuff offline.
This is about something i think would add something to my prep.
Forming a group of 3-4 people.
I have heard that a good group is like a catalyst speeds up the process. I was familiar with the idea earlier too but didn't think my prep was at a level where it would give too much benefit.
I think its the right time.
WHEN- I am thinking the group will meet on Sundays through calls (this way less conflict with daily prep and some productive use of sunday too)
PURPOSE - Mains specific at least For initial weeks -
-To actively collaborate and discuss on Quotes, Data and other examples for topics and form a CONSOLIDATED REFERENCE TABLE of the same through the discussion
- To discuss and analyse PYQ's and prepare model answers (broad initially and more specific as we move forward) of previous year questions
Other than that we can decide collectively moving forward
Let me know your thoughts if interested
Targets for this week:
1) Conicoids part of 3D(Have to complete this week anyhow) Priority 1
2) Governance Vision VAM ( First reading in a fast manner) Priority 2
3) History ( From harshavardhan till medieval: giving just a glance with rattafication for later months) Priority 3
Will have to anyhow come over the answer writing especially essay inertia i.e write an essay this week. Priority 0 (computer science guys will get this :P)
After an unfruitful week(thanks to LinkedIn making me question myself for one whole week) am ready to get back on track. Looking forward to meet the targets and see you guys on YPT. Have a productive and satisfying week ahead.
Logging in LinkedIn during prep days is nerve-racking! Those long and fancy list of achievements in profile would make us question ourselves again and again.
Have a great week ahead!
All the new people joining, welcome onboard. Hope this would help you all in accountability.

I totally agree..!
Bro..Relatives are more than enough to create stress and disturbance in life...;) unke ques are just like LinkedIn k post for me..;)
So..in preparation phase maintain thoda sa distance LinkedIn se...cz it may distract you from your targets..!! :)
Baaki..sab acha hoga..all the best..:)
I think I've shared this stuff in the past. I was just going through this book again, and I felt like sharing this, again. xD
Background- Chandrashekhar and others joined Congress
This part gives me chill. Moreover that "elites among elites" and "subaltern among subaltern" compels you to think something which you already know, but don't think on those lines enough. How a person from modest of the background assumed the PMO, how few months of his prime ministership changed the course of India, and how the budget introduced by Dr. Manmohan Singh in 1991 was supposed to be introduced by Chandrashekar's Govt and YET Luteyns never did justice with this man. (and if you'll search at right place, you'll know why)
This month until now has been heavy on me, the days seems dark, and nights darker. Probably going through this book again may help me come out of slumber.
Please share such anecdotes or so, keep this chat lively :). Baki padhai karne ki koshish toh hoti hi rahegi :D
