CSE 2023: Plan/ Strategy/ Daily Routine

@Steph_Curry Hello and congratulations, sir. I've started recently and I want to ask how to go about current affairs for 2024.

1. Right now, I make a one-page note of an issue (from the Mains perspective: with data/work done/issues/way ahead etc) I see recurring in the newspaper. I'm confused about the monthly booklet. Did you categorically memorize the booklets? If yes, how does one use it optimally?

2. Would it be sufficient if I were to go through the booklet and add to my newspaper notes issues from it that seem important, or is one supposed to separately make notes and learn the whole booklet like they learn the static part? 

3. Should one leave the monthlies and only depend on the Mains 365 before mains? Different people suggest differently, I'm sure everybody has their own way, but I am conflicted as to how to approach CA: it feels like something is constantly being left out.
