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

Studied for 8 hrs for the second time in my life yesterday. Feeling very proud. I know it's not much but I know I have come a long way. 
How many hours do you guys do on an average?

There is so much of honesty in that :)

My range is 8-10, on very good days. Baaki toh bas zindagi chal hi rahi hai :)

After a lot of thinking, I have come up with some strategy which would work for me, as I really needed something called a 'strategy' to get myself back to work. I have always been someone who used to put some good number of hours , but then these 2 months haven't been good with respect to putting good number of hours, but work was anyhow done. 

Now I want to focus both on work and the number of hours I put. I don't know If I will be able to stick but just as a new year resolution kind of thing I might just try my best to follow. 

Targets - 

1. Mains - Leftover topics 

2. CA class + others 

3. Miscellaneous

Where are others who used to put their targets regularly? Do post targets peepul :)

Good day everyone :) 

Completed - CA Class(took hugggeee chunk time) + Mains topics done ( 2) + newspaper + Some miscellaneous stuff.

Targets for tomarrow :

1. CA class backlog - 2 and half 

2. Mains topics - Try finishing all peripheral ones

3. Prelims Preparation 

Can't explain how I am feeling right now. This is the last day of the year, it wasn't a good year as I had planned, but it taught me so many lessons which in hindsight I think were neccessary. You can't always succeed in life in whatever you do, sometimes you do need some failures to understand the cruel reality of this world. 

This was the year I understood about importance of mental health, support system that you require in this journey, care that one must take of oneself, how impt it is to indulge in what you like to remain sane and most importantly to live life. 

I am just wishing the coming year brings happiness to all of us, we all get what we desire, keep ourselves happy and live life :) 

Good day everyone!

Hello beautiful humans,

Thank you for being an awesome supportive community. Pat yourself for getting this far. It is common to set targets and goals on the last day of the year under the high of fresh start NYE gives. However, take it with a pinch of salt and not overdo it. It's always the tiny daily steps and actions. A reminder for myself which I thought would help us all.


Targets for January

1) Revise Modern H and give 3 tests

2) Finish Ancient History and give 3 tests

3) CA and Quiz- June, July, Aug 2021 and revise them once

4) Attempt 2 Essay tests

5) Quant practise from Testbook ( Daily 10 Q)

I must frankly confess that this year was not on expected line, for me, and probably for most of us. 
Witnessed some ups and downs. To the people who reached out to me, remember I have your backs. :)
I'll try to post targets here more frequently, if not daily.

It was disheartening to see members at ypt functioning something most inadequately and without any faith in the cause for which it was made.
We have to function as a disciplined army now with definite objectives and with continuous work to attain them.
We can no longer carry on in a loose and inchoate way accepting anybody and everybody.  
Moreover, on this eve of New Year, we have organised an open party, and you my peeps, are invited to join it. You may come with your partner, I am coming with my partner PSIR :).
Starters include internal security, CA, agriculture, and desserts are as usual answer writing :)

Have a great year ahead. (and work for it!)

Back Here after a long time..:) Firstly, welcome to all the new joiners..! It's good to see other's working hard and posting their targets on a regular basis..! 

REASON FOR NOT BEING ACTIVE HERE(was completing sociology..answer writing..and the other important topics) gave myself the deadline (31st December) And thankfully much has been covered..:) 

Also.. Developed the habit of being active on YPT( actually helps to push your own limits sometime)

Ok..So peeps A lot of things to share with you all but I think giving summary would be a better option..YEAR 2021( A year full of tragedy.&.FULL OF STRESS) 

A THROWBACK..:

I actually joined Library in November 2019..and in March 2020 lockdown was imposed..so was not much familiar with "library wala culture"..that was the time I just started the journey..so didn't know a lot of things.. somehow managed in Lockdown( THANKS TO all those people around me.. for providing positivity) .Again started going to the library in September 2020..and in April 2021 lockdown was imposed...Aaaahhh..at a certain moment I was so disappointed..bcz finding library (WITH A GOOD SEAT) is a tough task..:( :/

Anyways...when everything was back on track i joined the library again and also.. because the paper was postponed...got more time for preparation..

Lost some of my close relatives in the pandemic..well sometimes I think there is nothing GOOD about 2021..! In my case..lost (a) Confidence..(b) Motivation..(c) Curiosity to know things..(d) Willingness to study..(e) To be HEALTHY..:) 

Well..2021 will be over in few hours from now.. and with the end of 2021..i have so many regrets which I will try to overcome in the NEW YEAR..! :) And also I feel good that I am here on FORUM.. atleast I can share stuffs with you all without hesitation..:) ...so being on  forum is in the bucket of good things happened in 2021.! 

BUDDIES.. doesn't matter what 2021 was all about.. let's just leave it all here and move on..! And also..the countdown starts for PRELIMS 2022 from tomorrow..

We will get through this peeps..KEEP WORKING HARD EVERYBODY..AND..

ALL THE BEST FOLKS..:)

Hello  sir/madam,

Sab ko naye saal ki hardik shubhkamnayein :D 

P.S.- I will be a little inactive here but my good wishes for everyone's prep. 

P.P.S.- An insight I got is that reading words of wisdom should not be mistaken as acquired wisdom for the self. It should act as inspiration for us to do moral acts to actualize the wisdom through our experiences and increase our stock of wisdom to generate good work and good will for others. 

The change in calendar warrants nostalgia. Let's turn all emotions into a positive force 🦾
