CSE 2021: Plan / Strategy / Daily Routine
Hello 2021 aspirants. I thought it would be nice if we can share what we are doing and intend to do with one another here.
This could be a thread for discussing everything prep for 2021.
No one method fits all but to see the plans and progress made by fellow aspirants might help with the finer details of preparation and also keep one on track.

Good morning you guys. There's lovely drizzly weather here that makes me want to both snuggle inside a heap of blankets and run around in the rain. But instead we're going to study!

@Muffin heyy, it's okay. Some amount of feeling ashamed can be good, it helps motivate you the next day, but beyond a point it's just bad for you. So best not worry about LKK. The Ls are just like you and everyone has bad and good days. Instead of being ashamed, just figure out what went wrong and you'll be able to fix it soon enough. All the best to you :)
@sjerngal drizzle five! ✋🏽
All the best everyone, have yourself a good day! :)
Done for the day. Actually finished early! It was because targets were lower, but I will still feel good about it :P looks like today I can finally get some writing/reading done.
@Shailputri the drawing in your dp is so pretty!! Love the girl's dress.
Good night guys :) have kickass sleeps.

So I got nothing done… except the newspaper and C/A revision and CSAT. It was quite a distracted day for me and instead of forcing myself to study, I did what I wanted to do…which was to binge watch stuff. I’m glad I did that, my soul feels lighter and I’m feeling ready to get back tomorrow. Good night friends!
Good night comrades have sweet dreams -signing off for the day

Having a Saturday off from college will be quite a relief tomorrow.
Some cleaning and arrangement of books is to be done. Hope it doesn't eat much of the time.
Also making it a point to post shlokas from the revered Bhagvad Gita(in the hope that I will be able to complete reading the translation work by Bibek Debroyji ,which otherwise has been lingering on for days now)-
धृतराष्ट्र उवाच
धर्मक्षेत्रे कुरुक्षेत्रे समवेता युयुत्सवः।
मामकाः पाण्डवाश्चैव किमकुर्वत सञ्जय।।1.1।।
Dhritarashtra said-
O Sanjaya! Having gathered on the holy plains of Kurukshetra, wanting to fight, what did my sons and the sons of Pandu do? (1.1)
SFG had brought so much discipline to my sleep schedule, now I'm back to my old habits again. What's worse is that I've forgotten how to be productive after the clock strikes 10 haha!
Anyway, now that we're done with the rant, let's move ahead. Managed to finish all the targets but one. Need to set tougher targets considering how I know I can do a lot better!
Targets:
- Complex Analysis Revision
- Complex Analysis PYQs (1/3)
- Vision Monthly Feb (Try to Finish)
- Newspaper
Good Morning people!
Could only revise the mathematics chapter and read the newspaper. Did a little bit here and there of the others. Don't regret it one bit though, brother brought me food from Delhi and then we geeked out about difficult math problems with minimal relevance for the UPSC exam!
Targets:
- Complex Analysis PYQs (1/2)
- Vision Monthly Feb (Try to Finish)
- Indian Geography maps
- Newspaper
