30th August 2020:-

Had target of revising too many tests early in the morning but could not do so:-

Reasons:-

1) Raat mein decide nahi kiya tha ki karna kya hai

2) Morning mein kisi tarah se mann ko maar ke padhna start nahi kiya(in first hour)

3) Kal raat mein thoda late tak padha and it disrupted my morning schedule


The most important thing is balance:-

1) Balance in believing what you believe

2) Balance in not following the crowd or some friends and just start doing some falana dhimkaana things

3) Balance in not taking any suggestions in last hours


Today I commit to myself that I will be in full control of myself for next 30 days. Koi kuch bhi kahe kare mai wahi karunga jo maine decide kiya hai. These are my days.

Tasks for today (30-08-2020)

  1. One mock test + analysis
  2. Start with modern history (1/4)
  3. Start Environment Current Affairs (1/5)

Short and doable. Let's hope I actually do it.

Did the mock test but not the analysis.Anybody has any tips for powering through the test analysis? 

Was able to completed modern history till the part I had decided. But that took so much time that I couldn't start with Current Affairs. I don't know how I will be able to do it all in 30 days.

@thistooshallpass regarding test analysis...
1.Try reading d topic(which u got wrong) from d source book ...it takes a lot of time when we start reading discussion PDFs like a book...avoid that...
2.also u can mark some imp pointers on d question paper itself...dat will help in subsequent revisions.

@dalpha Could revise only first two chapters of economy and after that there was a huge drama at home though not related to me but i had to get involved unwillingly. Things seems to be settled as of now. Have asked my family with folded hands to cooperate for a month at least. Let's hope everything goes well.
Will try to complete economy tomorrow.

“Tired of lying in the sunshine staying home to watch the rain. 
You are young and life is long and there is time to kill today. 
And then one day you find ten years have got behind you. 
No one told you when to run, you missed the starting gun.”

Targets for 31/08/2020

1. Give Vision Abhyas - list down topics not known and try to google

2. Mrunal Sir notes 20 pages - Pillar 4

3. Vision Society PT365 Booklet complete

4. Socio-Religious Reform Movements Spectrum

The past week has been a disaster, hoping for a better week ahead. Have been going directionless but from 1st September will go on to Economics Revision. Weakness is more in Environment, Art and Culture and Current, so need to spend more time with them plus try and do 1 Full Length test a day. Let's see how it goes.
