CSE 2022: Plan/ Strategy/ Daily Routine

This is an everything thread for all stuff 2022. You can post your daily goals, end-of-the-day updates, weekly targets or any weird thing you use to measure your progress. You can put into words & post the soul-sucking sadness that is threatening to devour you & your productivity. You can write what made your day & let others experience the happiness too, at least vicariously. This is a thread to pick each other up. This is a thread to keep each other accountable. This is a no-judgement zone.

--------

“This is one more piece of advice I have for you: don't get impatient. Even if things are so tangled up you can't do anything, don't get desperate or blow a fuse and start yanking on one particular thread before it's ready to come undone. You have to realize it's going to be a long process and that you'll work on things slowly, one at a time.”

— Haruki Murakami, Norwegian Wood

@Macro yes, if the subject matter is new to you then it is wise to google all the options. For example, they have asked a different question on pressure cooker before, I remembered that question but never bothered looking up even the basics of pressure cooker…. and regretted it.

@aa12 oh pressure cooker....and regarding science and tech it came in up pcs pre. Is science ghatnacharka worth doing?

@Macro I mean you have to prioritise. If you’re ignoring some other part, then may be you can do it . But I’d rather do S&T current affairs as it has more weightage than basic science (if you don’t know it already ). Topics like genetic engineering, viruses, space missions etc.
