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.

mightyraju,
mightyraju,
Thank you@Archand and@Villanelle for throwing some light on it. I visited the doctor in the evening and he told me the same thing. It is because of stress only. I have been told to spare some 30 mins or 1 hour from the my daily schedule to do any activity which I enjoy. I'll do something in this direction.
mightyraju,
Good morning Guys :)
Early start to the day from my side. Hope I make the most out of it. Now is not the right time to have stupid mood swings and waste times. Targets for 4/8/21
- Geography current affairs
- Places in news and mapping
- Finish the NCERT
Keeping the targets few, so that I don't get another panic attack and waste the whole day.
All the best guys.Jaan laga do ya jaane do!!
Great day today.. All targets done along with some other revisions here and there.
I have figured out whenever I feel sleepy, I play Game of thrones or Harry Potter soundtrack and it is so much fun studying listening to that...
On a side note, my evening walk surprised me with a sight of 7 adorable puppies born to that female dog..
Best part of the day... Wish I could take all of them home. Here is one of them. :)
Those button like eyes! So coooooote. @sjerngal
I usually do three things
1) If the question is from a particular topic I already have studied from my material (standard books/notes for static; CA magazines for current), I'll go to the relevant page of the material and write in the margins if there's some new info. This helps me mentally locate the info in its correct place while revising, and helps with easier recollection.
2) If it's something new, or some topic which I might have studied but don't remember from exactly where (which happens always with current affairs questions), I'll underline/highlight in the booklet itself. I have tried making separate notes in the past but it takes a lot of time. It's more efficient to directly revise from there.
3) In the booklet, I circle/tick-mark those questions I got wrong/unattempted or having some new info. So when I'm revising the test series, I'll skip many questions and just do those that are relevant (i.e. those that are marked). This again saves time.
Ok. Will try #3. Thanku!

@mightyraju Overthinking shouldn't be done. You can tackle it nicely on both argument/counterargument sides like how he incorporated realism and pragmatism, not founded in idealism and romanticism of Plato or divine theorists. On counter side, you can bring in scholars like Sabine who called his theory as pessimism and not pragmatism. Likewise, you can bring in more and more points for the theory.
@Infinitybeyondinfinity I hope you are ok Now.

Thats all for today guys! Let’s get this bread!
Done for the day guys! I’m trying to finish up/ stop (which ever happens earlier) by 10 every night so that I have some time to relax and unwind before bedtime.
@Infinitybeyondinfinity is that watercolour? That’s seriously impressive. I can never get watercolour to work for me, it just seems to have a mind of its own.
Done with targets for the day except CSAT video ( bcz watched hockey and wrestling matches) overall a very productive day getting back into full rhythm as said -#RukanaNahiHai
We finally won medal in Hockey -what a great match and moment, now fingers crossed for women’s team
Overall a great day for us in Olympic
So keeping pushing forward comrades as said -we shall overcome one day and try to learn from every athlete as they all have a unique and inspiring story
as said in Srimad Bhagwat Gita-
Signing off for the day
