Generally jis jgh dard hota hai usko dabate hai. You can try that :) 

Thanks for believing the fact that I didn't try that 🥲 *so thoughtful*


Update: It has gone on its own :)

Congratulations!!

2. Eco Jan CA

Too much has happening around me. But would get back on track today itself.

- 5 hours For - GS + CA+ Revision/Note making

I know, most people will think counting hours is futile. I agree, but only to an extent. If consistency is down - specifying hours helps, at least in my case, anyways- off I go!

Target update- been caught up with unavoidable things lately. Been solving CSAT PYQs , Doing Eco revision and newspaper (2 per day to cover backlog). Did plan out how to start and study geography. Will not up date targets this week , but would restart YPT from 7 pm today. (5+2+1) should reflect hopefully.


Is anyone here in a job/working? Need some insight.

Completed first 3. Started the day very late. Ending it early.

There were 2 editorials on Economy today in The Hindu, which I thought raised important issues.

 Currently many start ups are growing mainly in services sector. And again these start ups are over valued, forming a bubble. The two articles highlighted the urgent need of capital investment.

The most famous example of bubble is Tulip mania in Netherlands (1936-37). Such speculation markets should also be regulated.

About 70% of 1 completed. And can safely tick 5. My learning speed has slowed considerably. Hope it increases soon.
