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

Hi guys! Starting with Mains prep full throttle. Last week could only study half heartedly.
Targets for today:
1) 3D - Generating lines + 2nd degree general equation
2) Vector Analysis
3) Revise GS Data
4) Newspaper
5) Topper copies
1 not done. Will do it tomorrow.
Rest all done.
Targets for today:
1) Dynamics (notes + PYQs)
2) Newspaper
3) Revise GS Data (6 pages)
4) Topper Copy
This took longer than expected. Took me 2 days to complete Dynamics. Still about 5 years PYQs left. Also daily GS Data review is not going well. I'd rather spend 3-4 hours dedicatedly on that someday. For now will concentrate on Topper Copies and Newspaper.
Already feeling like I'm lagging behind my plans :P
Today's targets:
1) Pending PYQs, revision of 3D, Vectors, Dynamics
2) Newspaper
3) Topper copies
Have a great day people!
Back after a long break. Starting the Mains prep now with vigour.

Sorry to barge in, did anyone here prepare current affairs here from Raus IAS ca magazine? If yes, how did it fare? Anything missing wrt to vision IAS? Having Current affairs FOMO.
I had done so for my first attempt. Found it sufficient. Stopped using it as the hard copy was difficult to find. :P
If you're worried wrt prelims, try going through past 2-3 years papers. Vision brings out a detailed analysis where for each question they'll mention the sources, including whether the info was available in their material. You'll get an idea ki which questions could be solved directly from their monthlies. Compare those to Rau's (you'll have to manually check if the topic was covered) . You'll get to know whether there's a significant difference in both. Then you can act accordingly.
Also in general, role of monthlies is decreasing (not done 2022 ka analysis - but 2021 tak yahi trend tha). Not many questions are being asked - it's not worth the huge effort required.
Did a little bit of everything and yet did not finish anything in full apart from the newspaper. Looking forward to a better day tomorrow.
