I have written 3 prelims and failed in all. There has been improvement in all, I missed the last two by a few marks. Among other factors, I feel burnout has been one of the significant ones. We are told to be in a constant problem-solving mode, but it is extremely crucial to manage burnout. Although I took short breaks during my preparation they weren't regular, and even when I took a break my mind was constantly thinking about the exam, the results and my future. Hence the breaks were almost ineffective as my mind was not well-rested.
After speaking to you, I have decided to join the SFG and plan to do some targeted answer writing till February to make up for my sins of ignoring it until now. However, I fear burnout, I don't know how to manage it. I have been struggling with it, I am exhausted, almost depleted. I am trying to work on it albeit ineffectively. I request@Neyawn to make a video or write a long read on the same. Please share your experience and of toppers on how they faced burnout and how they overcame it/ managed it effectively.
Thank you@Neyawn
