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.

@LetsGetThisBread Hi, how are you covering the Society part of GS1? Sources? any advice regarding it?

Didnt study anything yesterday. i am trying to tweak my sleeping schedule and start waking up by atleast 7 AM. Made a failed attempt yesterday (slept at 5;30 AM and was trying to wake up at 9AM.....slept again at 11AM)....ended up with a bad headache...lost half of the day in this. then decided to call a few friends. Ate lots of junk food after a long long time...feeling really guilty about it now. 


Anyways... after an unplanned break....lets get back to study today. 


same study targets for today, 22-07-2021.

Additionally, i must must finish off everything by 2:30 AM today and SLEEP..... And wake up by 9 AM tomorrow.

Thanks @Shailputri . Although I couldn't carry forward the momentum today. I'm trying to fix my sleep schedule so woke up earlier than usual. Hence I spent the entire day sleepy and unproductive

Dynamics classes ->33% done;    Newspaper ->done;    CA revision ->Not Done

Now I hope I'm able to sleep earlier and thus wake up earlier.
