It is a productivity app. You can watch this video to understand how it works.
There is a forum members group on it if you wish to join.
Let me know on DM. Will share the details.
Thanks for the info :)

Geography seems to be losing to Literature. So only geography for today, entirely, along with the compulsory answer writing and newspaper.
Didn't post any targets today, for they were going to be a repetition of what I had been posting for the last 4-5 days. So here are some reliving end-day updates:
1. Finished geography, finally (What relief!)
2. Finished a major chunk of Biswas (along with a lot of slow piano just to feel the text better), so that it will be finished tomorrow.
3. Practised answer writing
My brain has made a khichdi out of the too many emotions of the day– Biswas, the accompanying piano, my half-satisfaction, half-want.
So I know its time to sleep.
Good night folks :)
Targets for today (26.11.21)-
1. Finish reading A House for Mr. Biswas
2. Write Philip Larkin test paper
3. GS answer writing
4. Newspaper
Focusing mostly on Optional today; deadlines approaching.
Good day! ☀️
Finished reading Biswas and realised I had a cold. Revised Larkin's poetry while the cold grew worse. Didn't study anything after that :/
27.11.21:
Have a test to write, and so the focus will be on writing as many questions as I can.
Also, the YPT group says I don't have the rights to chat, and so, dear admin, consider this an application, and include me too :)
The past few days were a struggle, with maintaining Health, focus and consistency. And won't deny, their were failures in all three.
But today, I do feel refreshed, and so promise to be regular with this thread too. Today's (06.12.21) targets are:
1. Economy (1/4)
2. April monthly (1/2)
3. Newspaper
Here's wishing all you peeps a day of satisfaction: all the best! ☀️

Half-way through the first target, I stopped. And that was all I achieved in the day.
So, today the focus shall be on completing yesterday's backlog, along with the newspaper of today.
Hoping for a productive day.
Hello everyone,
Been dealing with some issues from a long time. Just recently came across this platform on forum to discuss various things about the preparation. So I'm sharing it with this hole that somebody might suggest something useful. I'm based at home doing cse prep. So have exhausted two attempts couldn't clear prelims this time was scoring around 85. Done with the syllabus too for the core subjects ,but didn't had a mains oriented approach so haven't done much answer writing and also haven't done my optional very well too.
But my problem isnt any of this. You see I came to this preparation about 2 years back because of my parents will but then I worked hard from my side too but I feel suffocated sometimes not just sometimes but quite a lot. Last year during covid when the libraries got shut I was in this huge depression...alone...nobody in my family to understand my problems...even suicidal...that was for 2-3 months basically that was a huge loss to me..for my prep. I came out of it through medications and other self help methods. Since then have tried to not fall back to that place. But every and then I start to slip in that zone especially when the results are not showing. I have quite a conservative family which won't let girls live outside home etc. I gave up a job after Btech and every now and then that decision bites me of what I have got myself into basically giving up the independence I could have had. Its this feeling of despair and suffocation that kills me sometimes especially when the journey seems neverending.
My apologies for sharing this rather negative post in here. This might feel like I'm overexaggerating things but I've been dealing with this since a long time and no matter how hard I try to just study and not think of the results...sometimes it becomes really overwhelming.
I can feel what you're going through. I too am preparing from home, have failed prelims once, and have no job right now. About the conservativeness, my father is against me going to the library which is in my own city.
The only solution in a situation like this is to be patient and to keep going. If that seems too hard to implement alone, seek help. Make friends (count me in if you want to). Go to therapy if you can, and if not, just allow yourself a vent. Don't burden yourself with your emotions, share them, relieve yourself.
One more thing, If your score was 85, be confident that you're ready, just a little more work and you'll be there. You are able enough.
Writing after a long time, and with a lot of reluctance.
I feel entrapped, by my own mind. 2021 was definitely not an easy year, but what's harder to accept is how handled it. In many ways, I lost a lot. There were friends who, teeming with energy, were lifeless a couple of months later. There were friends who found better friends. There were arguments with family, ones that I had gone through only in my mind before, but became very real. And there was a failure in prelims, after 1.5 years of preparation.
And I don't think I handled any of these well. The very willingness to do anything, let alone study, seems lost. And even though I have been academically good, mostly, my entire belief in me remains shook.
I don't want get pulled into the abyss called depression, and I really do feel I'm slipping into it. So decided to write this post, and tell myself that there are many in the world, in the same situation like me, and that i'm not as lonely as I think myself to be.
Thank you, for reading it in full. And apologies, for sounding so negative.

I would do it all over again:
Be the harbor and set the sail,
Loose the breeze and harness the gale,
Cherish the harvest of what I have been.
Better the summit to scale.
Better the summit to be.
(Toni Morrison, Eve Remembering)
@Thunderstorm great pictures those were!

Done, done.
It's the countdown week to cgl, so that will be the focus the next 7 days. Along with it, will try to revise polity. Will begin posting again on 20th.
Till then, all the best, mates.
Back again!
CGL was a mixed bag, and not pinning any expectations to it.
44 days to go! Have planned to divide my revision into four phases from here. The first phase, starting today, will involve in-depth revision of every subject except polity and modern India, which I've already completed.
Phase 1, Day 1: 22.04.22
1. Mrunal Pillar 1 (1/2)
2. Forum ques bank- Banking and Capital Market
3. Insta eco CA- 20 pages
Happy junoon, mates!

True. The only problem is i didn't take the break I should have for CGL. giving this attempt to upsc, and if I fail, will take a break and get myself a job first.
Good thinking...Give various exams which have overlapping syllabus(maths+English+reasoning+GK). U r sure to nick one of them..exams u can consider giving are SSC CGL, RBI, NABARD and SEBI..
Sure, will look up the recommendations. Thank you!

Productivity slightly better, but not to the extent I would want it to be.
Review: completed about 70% of the first and second targets, did not start the third.
Same targets for today.
All the best!

Didn't post any targets yesterday as it was dedicated to finishing backlogs. Thankfully, all done.
Have also noticed that I'd rather study the same subject for 2-3 hours more than take up a different one. Inculcating this observation into my targets from now on (and making them a bit ambitious too).
For today (26.04.22)
1. Mrunal Pillar 2

Please never make that mistake. Jumping from one subject to another. Civils requires some depth. It's not science or maths. You will need to give it some time so that you reach the required depth . In short, don't flip before you have achieved what you want to achieve.
Yes sir. The pressure of 'finishing' makes one want to jump over topics as quickly as possible. Have realised the mistake, will keep the learning in mind.
