Civil Services Mains 2020 Results: In or Out ? Way ahead, gratitude and Pain

Well, the least expected situation happened! I guess there's nothing I can do but to accept the rejection and come back stronger. But, that's easier said than done.

We throw the word "empathy" pretty frequently even if a particular circumstance doesn't warrant its usage. But, when I was going through @Patootie's post, this particular paragraph has hit me hard.

"..even when I was fully expecting (hoping) that I would clear. I’m gutted that I haven’t cleared; I feel there’s a great part of me that just feels numb. The defence mechanisms have kicked in fully. The only questions before me is: What next? Where do I go now?.."

I don't know what to do. 

I was preparing for the Personality Test fully expecting that I would be making into the third stage. But, I am not welcome. At least, for this year.

After giving 5 Mains, I am still wondering what are the tweaks that are to be incorporated in my preparation.
