Today wasn't the day. Tbh, I have been scrolling through books and was still undecided as how to proceed. In the process, my head felt like bursting.

The fact is, I couldn't finish most of the targets. It was a case of some bits here, some bits there.Transnational Actors remains and Miscellaneous stuff was 60-70% done.I don't want to see the face of Economy post 1st September. I don't want to chase perfection here, but ain't able to restrain my tendencies.

A promise to self- Come what may, but I will appear for MGP tests of Economy not beyond 1st September.

Late night musings with the Sound of silence playing in my head as I struggle to fall asleep:

Funny how there's a well functioning world outside that you don't feel a part of and try to actively avoid and then there's forum with so many people having similar aches, similar stories, similar fears and similar rhetoric; making you feel at home.
Acha lagta hai to come across words expressing the tempest within you, to know that you're not alone in this 😌🙂

Not a good day yesterday, Didn't achieve most targets.

Also I need some help, Are there people here who have completed Economy via Mrunal notes ? 

How are you managing, I have completed at least 2-3 revisions still find myself struggling due to the amount of information and bulkiness. All suggestions welcome. :blush:


P.S. Also please tell if you have joined Forum CA classes .. Was thinking about it but then i realised most of the syllabus will be an overlap with Mrunal

@Aazaad Keep 1-2 hour in morning purely for revision of handouts you have studied previously. At night just go through index of those handouts and do active recalling. 
This has helped me immensely before 2022 pre. Using this technique I had Mrunal on my tips.

I have spent the last few days in uncertainty. Not that anything major happened as such. It is one low phase I guess. 

Today I read Amitabh Bachchan's blog, and the latest post came as a reassurance– that it is indeed normal, more than normal, to fail. Attaching the link here

@Aazaad no idea about mrunal sir ,but I have done Dipin sir CA classes for last year mains as well as for this year its totally worth it and will surely add value to your answers if you are willing to do it religiously + trusting the content sir provides +content provided  can be used in multiple places if you revise it adeaquate no of times .At last what i want to say is it will definetly help you in scoring good marks in mains

When things go wrong, as they sometimes will,

And the road you're trudging seems all uphill,

When the funds are low and the debts are high,

And you want to smile, but you have to sigh,

When care is pressing you down a bit,

Rest if you must, but don't you quit.

 

Life is queer with its twists and turns,

As every one of us sometimes learns.

And many a failure turns about

When he might have won had he stuck it out.

Don't give up though the pace seems slow,

You may succeed with another blow.

 

Often the goal is nearer than it seems

To a faint and faltering man.

Often the struggler has given up when he

Might have captured the victor's cup,

And he learned too late when the night slipped down,

How close he was to the golden crown.

 

Success is failure turned inside out,

The silver tint of the clouds of doubt,

And you never can tell how close you are.

It may be near when it seems afar.

So stick to the fight when you're hardest hit.

It's when things seem worst that

You musn’t quit.

-By Edgar Guest 

Just felt worth sharing

Is there any cheap answer writing source? Since most of the prominent coaching Institute charge very high amount for their test series?

I have really not been in groove since yesterday. I again got up late today and that was still acceptable to an extent.Then, headache did hit me like hell.I don't know whether it is due to my recently diagnosed eyesight issues yaa mai awein hi looking for excuses.

Pta nahi what it  really is, but I will be in the library before 7:30 tomorrow. Starting a day on a positive note has always helped me.So, hopefully it will wake my out of the slumber.


Targets updation in the morning(Before 7:30 am)

@LetsGetThisBread I pray for your mental well being. Hopefully, you will survive this bout of absurdity after reading my scripts, ma'am. Also, you can choose to be bribed.Lol.

Shubh Ratri doston.

Was a good day. Ik I can do way better, but don't want to push myself right now. Somewhat want to enjoy the whole day and develop myself ("':

Today a friend called, tomorrow I'll be going to visit ganpati ji. Sociologists argue that it's a tribal diety, but deep down we all know em dieties  integrate the society. Will most probably meet my school friends.

Work done Today -

1. Woman issues.

2. Random pre mcq on line.

3. Current affairs + sorting things out in BINDERS( am I Amy or Cap Holt? )

4. Socio lecture.

5. Gym - did chest today. 

6. Ethics flt - section A. 


Do you guys time your studies? What do you do when you are not able to complete the desired targets during those time slots?
