CSE 2023: Plan/ Strategy/ Daily Routine
Anyone who can help me, kindly suggest an effective way to get rid of terrible neck sprain!It is turning out to be an actual Pain in the..................NECK!
Try neck exercise. Actually it happened with me every 15 days. And sometimes jab 15 din par Dard nahi hota tha tab.
Me : Neck pain ku nahi ho rha hai..
Pain: Mujhe yad kiya mera nam Lia.. Oooooo... Oooo.
Solution : 1. Do neck exercises like rotation, up and down etc
2. Purchase Book stand jispar angle set krke padhte hai.
3.try to avoid study on low lying table.
4.take care your study posture..
Hope it helps.. ✨
Day 2/21 (7th October)
1. Current Affairs: Pending lecture watch + revise 2 lectures + newspaper
2. Forestry: Lecture on silviculture+ revise 1 lecture
3. Medieval history: Satish Chandra- revise 2 chapters, re-read 1 chapter
4. Polity: Read 5 pages of bare act
5. Read atleast 10 pages of 'Wanderings in the Himalayas'.
Once again, aim is to do these no matter the time and cost.
Completed everything, but after 5 hours of lectures and newspaper, I almost skimmed through Satish Chandra and bare act.

Deepak802,
Kaafi happening thread hai yeh toh. Forum par bahut dino baad aayi and tbh missed this place a lot.
Now that mains is over and I know where I lack, I need to start again for the same. Similarly I am also trying to focus on RBI Grade B as well, I wasn't able to clear but I did score theek thak marks and with good efforts aur acha kar leti shayad. So now for the next three months focus would be optional, aptitude for other exams and some other stuff where I lack.
Baaki, I am so happy to see this thread. Forum has given me many friends and I am so happy to see that happening again here :)
Targets - Newspaper and Rest. Tabiyat down hai thodi. Plus aage ke plan.

Haha Yes Yes, I do remember that day. From prelims exam, to prelims result that whole phase was quite thrilling and tbh I never ever want to be in that situation again.
And I am not very much satisfied with my performance, neither I want to be , else scope for improvement nahin rehta hai. I feel there are a lot of issues jispe I need to work. Baaki have given my best, dekhte hai result kaisa aata hai.
All the best to you too :) Aati rahungi thread pe. Idhar bahut saare dost log already hai
Deepak802,PepethefrogLessons from SSB.
(Apologies for the length it is going to have.)
Recently, I attended the Air Force Selection Board at Dehradun. (AFSB/SSB is a five days procedure they have for every Defence exam that lands you onto a commissioned post- AFCAT/NDA/CDS etc). This one brought me to some realisations.
I don't know if it was the sedentary upsc prep or the lockdown (that started in 4th sem of college and didn't end until five days ago) or my introversion that made me awkward, really awkward. I could sense that I wasn't mindful, I said and did stupid things, and my thought process was really slow.
Perhaps it was a mix of all three.
In physical tasks I was weak and scared. The interview (that was mostly personal- about background, family, friends etc) made me feel vulnerable, exposed. The only thing I perhaps enjoyed were the psych tests (in which all you need to do is 'write' responses- to pictures, words and situations). I was suspicious of my roommates and found hard to mix with them.
But SSB had more lessons than just these. As I sensed these problems, my roommates guided me through. They were welcoming despite the competition. I never initiated any conversations, but well, they did. They encouraged me to perform well- 7 complete strangers I was to be with for less than a week.
My lesson is that most people have good hearts after all. That life isn't supposed to be as serious as we think it should. That being social indeed makes you a little more confident, while introversion a little less. That not all things need to be thought before being acted upon. That when it comes to health- one cannot lessen the importance of either physical or mental health; they are both very important and they both supplement each other.
I have decided to make a few small (but determined) changes, and recording them as little notes to self here-
1. Initiate conversations. With old friends, with new people. You need them as much as it is your responsibility to be when they need you.
2. Exercise. Daily.
3. Do some things without thinking. Regularly. (Things like replying to any random comment anywhere, playing with your brother or simply letting people around you know that you're hurt or angry when you are that.)
4. Love the world, with the things, the people, the many flaws of it. Go out every two weeks (unlike the present once in months) and get a better perspective (and personality).
Maybe it sounds all too idealistic. But I have seen that whenever I realise something in a trip to some other place, it stays with me. Three years ago I felt I needed spirituality and that is the thing that has stayed most consistently. I am not always focused, and not always positive either, but one little part of my day is always dedicated to it.
Forum, just like the SSB, has good people too. And through this post, I thank you guys- for all the bubbly, relatable conversations- and I thank them, for the support.

This is so wholesome to read!
I hope you had a great experience at the SSB. It is a once in a lifetime experience for many.
* "My lesson is that most people have good hearts after all." - I've been treading this path for long now and can definitely concur; although you do get disappointed many a times but that doesn't mean you stop believing in the goods of people.
As the famous saying goes, "To err is human"
* Talking about the 7 strangers who helped and guided you through; that is how the forces work, aint it? Buddies and comrades maintaining their camaraderie!
*As for the goals you've penned down, even a percent in that direction is enough to manifest cascading changes. Really hope you keep working in that direction.
Signing off wishing on a more transparent, more compassionate and a more loving world (with reduced suspicions 😅)

The experience was definitely once in a lifetime. Though I didn't get recommended, it gave me much needed exposure- to the world, and to myself.
Also, your wish for the world is beautiful 🌸🌤

If someone has a decent approach to do things, then I guess putting in X amount of hours should take care of all other worries. So, according to me far from being futile, counting hours is one of the best thing.
This is the reason why i'm kinda envious of people(who know what they're doing) who put in more than 6h+/day, cos i barely manage to hit the 3 hour mark, even on days which I consider good (which are once in a month phenomenon). Also, it is not a creative field, so no one can surpass others easily just by sheer 'brilliance', so quality in some sense depends on quantity.
Anyway, I wrote this just to remind myself that studying for 1-2 hours a day won't take me anywhere, except the rock bottom.

Achieved around 70% targets.
Answer writing from tomorrow onwards.
I was thinking that maybe we don’t realise how future technologies like AI, IoT and Big data Analytics are going to change our lives. Just had a thought experiment the other day. Suppose every person is provided with an AI as a 24x7 assistant. We wouldn’t need to remember anything for exams then. We would’ve more free time to spare. The mode of gaining knowledge would change from learning ourselves to teaching to AI assistant. The Big Data will guide us to choose an appropriate career option or any other major decision of our lives, based on past data and personality traits(just like the sorting hat in the Harry Potter movie). The army personnel armed with such advanced technologies and tackling many on-battle issues and factors simultaneously (like in the Iron man movies). Similarly, industries using such technologies to equip its workers to work with more efficiency. The economists using large data to calibrate macro economic policies effectively. Lawyers and judges in courts presenting and analysing arguments in a better way. Etc etc.
@sstarrr welcome. Hope you gave your best in mains. Aapme Pratibha hai, aap nikal lijiyega. Khub mann lagake padhai kijiye (Panchayat dialogue :p)
I’m also thinking of focusing on csat part. I’ve lost the practice of these things. This time in CSAT, could not manage my time effectively. Every now and then I am like, I could’ve avoided that mistake, or could’ve attempted 1 more question or could’ve attempted more question of that topic etc etc. I had attempted total 44 questions, 28 aptitude (22 correct), rest Comprehension and 0 reasoning, due to paucity of time. Need to allocate ample time to these also.
@huck I’ve also attended a week of Training camp (during college time as part of curriculum). It was one of the best experiences I’ve ever had. I had seen a major change in my everyday routine. There was more discipline and punctuality after that.
