Hello everyone,
I have been waiting for this thread thank you@nerdfighter . I am one of those silent observers who reads most of the comments get inspired and relates to what others are going through. I had my failures in 2018, 2019 and 2020 prelims itself--decided to change optional midway from psir to mathematics for 2020---strange? Yeah I know.
Failed 2020 prelims by 1.33 marks--dejected I decided to get a job. Applied for anything and everything got close in every exam and failing within the margin of 10 marks. But Out of the list means out of the list no ifs and buts.
Still waiting for 3 more results. Though I have not given 2021 prelims but have decided to give one more shot in 2022 with all I have left inside me and ofcourse getting inspiration from you people.
Currently I am preparing for UPPCS on 24th. Let's see how things roll out.
P.S. I will try not to go silent again and to those silent readers sorry for opting out this might help me😜
Some thoughts which occured to me today :
1. Understanding and confronting your feelings - I was in a denial all this while . I felt that loosing prelims did not hurt me and its pretty normal. But it is not, I have been into preparation since 3rd year. A 2 year long journey where I have sacrificed many things, which I don't regret as it was my own choice. But somebody yesterday told me you must not be feeling sad unlike all of us because this is your first attempt whereas we all are in our second/third/fourth attempt. All my attempts to forget about my prelims came haunting me back. Feelings confronted me today and I couldn't control it much longer.
An unpredictable paper it was and I would not have worried much if it had gone bad , but I am standing somewhere close to 84-86, the thing that is haunting me is those 5 questions which I did wrong against the wishes of my gut feelings - water, pressure cooker, article 14, one history question and a eastern ghat river question. I am unable to come to terms that this is going to be the reason behind my failure in prelims.
Still I am trying, trying to shift my focus from this exam and the prelims failure and move on. Moving on seems hard at this point but this is the most I can do.
So to everyone reading this, confront your feelings, don't be in a denial and accept your feelings with open arms. Let this flow, because if you allow feelings to quell up, it would block the veins in your body, your heart and brain would stop working and you will react or over-react to things. In these two days, I got irritated pretty easily, shouted , screamed and cried. The more I tried to forget the more it came back haunting me making my life more difficult. Welcoming it with open arms would have been much easier.
2. To deviate my mind I watched Criminal Justice ( I know a little late) - One thing that struck me was UPSC chahe jitna bhi unpredictable ho, it actually offers you a lot to work. The situation in prison made me think why prisons are even created? Are they created for the purpose of punishment or for reforming the person? The prison where the guy aditya sharma was kept, was not reforming him but instead it created another monster from humans. The state of our prison is one of the worst in the world, we need urgent reform, for protecting and promoting the basic human rights of people. Unsanitary conditions, constant threat to life , politicisation of prisons and many more things. It just gave me one more reason to continue trying for this exam. Baaki as life would take, kuch nahin tohdhairyaki tarah NGO hi khol legen.
You are feeling sad because you tried and you really wanted to pass this exam number of attempts do not define the extent of sadness amount of effort does. Kudos to you because you made an honest attempt. ATB!
Re starting after a little break is kinda double edged sword. You are interested to get back to studies but also can get distracted easily. Stuck somewhere in between after UPPCS restarting for 2022.
Today's target
1. Current affairs magazine-30 pages
2. Linear algebra topic- subspaces and vector space
3. GS3 MGP2022 topic- 2 concept classes
TFD- Seeking perfection in imperfections

Can anyone here recommend a good teacher for polity ? I have messed up basic questions in that segment that is keeping in danger zone wrt the cutoff this year. So I was thinking If I should take up classes again for this subject ..With no disrespect to any teacher, I do not think classes would be a solution. What has been your approach to read polity, if I may ask?
So I have completed Laxmikant and class 11th Political theory NCERT .. for current affairs I follow vision magazines and follow newspapers regularly and whatever issue I think is more imp and relevant wrt the syllabus , I make a side note of it on the vision magazine(no separate notes)
Also add previous year questions and questions from multiple test series. In polity economy and modern history solving many number of questions (prelims perspective) is handy. And then ofcourse read and re read the original sources multiple times.

Hey
I did solve vision ias sectional tests and forum tests but then woh federalism , liberty and citizenship wale question mei gadbad ho gayi 😐
and those mistakes were not silly .. I mean I did feel ki federalism wale mein ans woh B option hoga federal units wala and liberty mein elected govt . My core understanding is flawed perhaps ... thats why I was thinking if some teacher could teach me those things like a school kid ..
Oh..okay! I can give some insight on self study part with teachers my knowledge is limited.
Few will have valuable inputs for you. ATB!
Finally made peace with my Prelims 2021 debacle. Scoring in the range of 82-88 according to different answer keys.
Like@Neyawn always says, it does not hurt when we mark the pressure cooker question wrong, but it eats up your soul when you mark a question on FDI wrong.
I am still trying to figure out the process through my failure. People at home are disappointed, consequently, casual taunts became my best friend. I think this is the new normal.Learnt a few lessons the hard way. The most important one is that this exam demands a thick skin especially if one is preparing from home.
+100000000000
@HughJackman also, anyone with maths optional??
Yep
@ThePhenom @Indian_Human are you guys writing the ims test series for cse2021
No I am not writing. They use to have before prelims in December idk if they will have now. I was thinking to join that batch.
are you guys joining any test series for answer writing practice? And if any one knows what are these concept classes of mgp ++ .Are they any good or mgp+ will suffice?
MGP ++ will have short videos around 30 min long. They cover important concepts in length and breadth for eg video on separation of power, green economy, blue revolution etc etc. Basically it deals with important and basic concepts of every topic and its subtopic. They are many so many that I lost count after some time.
I found them useful because I have been short of guidance these videos kind of help what to read and how to read. You will have to find your reasons they will enrich content that's all I can say.
Well MGP+ is test papers and essay paper.
had signed up for cohort 10 mgp because I was certain of clearing but oh well I didn't. don't know how to proceed, any word of advice/ guidance ?
Easier said than done. Be around people who have cleared and push yourself to complete all the tests. It will be helpful in next mains. You have 2-3 months window before gearing up for next prelims make the best out of it. Every day is crucial hereon.

Hii guys!
Thought of sharing some stuff here regarding preparation and all.
Yeah so finally everything falling into its place ofc not without efforts. This space has been a bliss ever since I decided to be active. Really motivated me and pushed me to be at my toes and then ypt people. People posting their targets here and seeing them clocking more than 10 hours there is true motivation.
Lately I found a library near my house I have been searching for one since long time. I have started to feel all my gaps are finally being filled. Feeling good about preparation and being an aspirant. That's what I really care at this point of time.
Thank you guys. For keeping my competitive spirits alive. Ypt people big shout out to all those constantly shaking me and to those working their ass off. ATB!
It was a wonderful excerpt, amazed by the personality he was, the way he communicated and definitely want to read more about him.
I guess I am also in the same phase of days dark and nights darker, but I guess its getting better with time.
I guess when one keeps going, days do start becoming brighter. Each day is a new struggle, mentally and physically. Its same for all of us.
Take your own sweet time, give your mind the rest it deserves, give it time to heal if something's bothering and then get back to work. All the best.
About sharing stuff one thing has been bothering me since a long, want to just share - So after our ex-CJI released his book, saw his interviews. I was astonished by the way he communicated, he was aggressive and offensive, we just don't expect people from such high positions to communicate in this manner. Anyways that's not bothering.
So I decided to read about the sexual harassment case, and not just going by whether the allegations were true or not, what bothered me was the way it was handled. The woman was denied lawyer to represent her, there were no external members, the proceedings taken forward without the participation of the victim and of course the verdict was given. There was just one member who objected to women not being the part and that was Justice D.Y Chandrachud ( he gives me hope, some of his recent judgements are my favourite, I remember smiling once while reading his judgement, as he just gave me hope, that things could be better, can't remember the case though)
The below article mentions that, after refusing advances of the Gogoi, the woman did not ring the bells immediately and at the right time, she did it after her husband and brothers-in-law were were removed from their job. Why were all of that happening at the same time? She removed from her job, then her husband and their her brothers-in-law. What struck to me was that A man's ego was so hurt with that refusal of advances that he had just tried to destroy the life of the powerless woman? If male ego is such deep rooted and seen even in men of that stature and position, being highly educated, then what can we expect from the normal people?
The issues is in conditioning of child, parents refuse things children ask more so if they are men, they think its their right to ask things and get things. When they get a NO, they are not used to it, and then we see what we see all day.
Yeah, too much of ranting, but it was there. I hope we make this place a safe space for women soon!

Read this for a better understanding of what I wanted to say.
This discussion compelled me to come back to forum :)
Totally agree with what you have written about Justice Gogoi. The NDTV interview was such an eye opener although it was out there in the open since long time, to see him give voice to it and confirm everything that was said, is shocking. I think it is fitting that privilege motion has been moved against him in the RS.
Nemo judex in causa sua -No one should be a judge in their own case is one of the basic principles. Convened a special bench and headed it himself ?How intimidated the woman must have been in those proceedings ? Why does the procedure allow for this to happen even ? No, we are not going into the merits of the case here. The procedure was definitely problematic. Can nothing be questioned because it might undermine the independence of judiciary ?
Join you all in looking at Justice Chandrachud with hope. Whenever I am bored of studying from the book, I listen to his speeches. They are well articulated and sensitive towards the marginalised sections.
An excerpt from one of his speeches -
"The film(The Great Indian Kitchen) charted out the compounding indignities that the bride faced in unpaid and thankless labour that was exerted in domestic chores and cooking. The denial of her ambitions to work a job of her choice, and finally, the harsh isolation and associated untouchability when menstruating. The movie poignantly engaged with the news of the Supreme Court judgment and juxtaposed it with the livid reality of this woman who was not asserting. She was not asserting the right to go on the pilgrimage but was fighting a much deeper battle as her existence was diminished by her gender. This is a stark reminder for how mere legislative or judicial intervention does not automatically upend the inequities that are entrenched in our society."
I would recommend this Malayalam film if you haven't watched it yet. It was so close to reality that I had tears in my eyes in many instances.
Justice Chandrachud in an absolute nerd-crush of mine. This is one Justice Chandrachud quote that I had kept in my notes for the clarity and freshness in his writing. This is from BK Pavithra-II case. A breath of fresh air on the discourse of Merit and Efficiency.
“Article 335 cannot be construed on the basis of a stereotypical assumption that roster point promotees drawn from the SCs and STs are not efficient or that efficiency is reduced by appointing them. This is stereotypical because it masks deep rooted social prejudice. The benchmark for the efficiency of administration is not some disembodied, abstract ideal measured by the performance of a qualified open category candidate. Efficiency of administration in the affairs of the Union or of a State must be defined in an inclusive sense, where diverse segments of society find representation as a true aspiration of governance by and for the people.
Our benchmarks will define our outcomes. If this benchmark of efficiency is grounded in exclusion, it will produce a pattern of governance which is skewed against the marginalised. If this benchmark of efficiency is grounded in equal access, our outcomes will reflect the commitment of the Constitution to produce a just social order.
Hence, while interpreting Article 335, it is necessary to liberate the concept of efficiency from a one sided approach which ignores the need for and the positive effects of the inclusion of diverse segments of society on the efficiency of administration of the Union or of a State. Establishing the position of the SCs and STs as worthy participants in affairs of governance is intrinsic to an equal citizenship. Equal citizenship recognises governance which is inclusive but also ensures that those segments of our society which have suffered a history of prejudice, discrimination and oppression have a real voice in governance. Since inclusion is inseparable from a well governed society, there is , in our view, no antithesis between maintaining the efficiency of administration and considering the claims of the SCs and STs to appointments to services and posts in connection with the affairs of the Union or of a State.”
“Administrative efficiency is an outcome of the actions taken by officials after they have been appointed or promoted and is not tied to the selection method itself. The argument that one selection method produces officials capable of taking better actions than a second method must be empirically proven based on an evaluation of the outcomes produced by officials selected through both methods.
Arguments that attack reservations on the grounds of efficiency equate merit with candidates who perform better than other candidates on seemingly “neutral” criteria, e.g. standardised examinations. Thus, candidates who score beyond a particular “cut-off point” are considered “meritorious” and others are “non-meritorious”. This is a distorted understanding of the function “merit” plays in society.
A “meritorious” candidate is not merely one who is “talented” or “successful” but also one whose appointment fulfils the constitutional goals of uplifting the members of the SCs and STs and ensuring a diverse and representative administration.”
I think I've shared this stuff in the past. I was just going through this book again, and I felt like sharing this, again. xD I thought I was being crazy when I saw hope for Indian judiciary in Justice chandrachud and Justice NV Ramana. His proactive role during covid crisis pulling up the delhi govt and centre. I used to go crazy talking about these people with my friends.
You gave it a name instead of craziness- Nerd Crush it is xD

Even I thought its just me. I absolutely loved him for his judgements, Like I used to look forward for his judgements. About CJI NV Ramana, see his recent comments on sedition law. The way he talks about politicisation of judiciary. High hopes!
One of my other favourites has been Justice Madan B Lokur. He is retired , still sometimes listen to his debates, just to get that hope, that things will be fine, one fine day.
Yes, absolutely. However I feel we are expecting too much from judiciary. Yes the standards of judgement nose dived during tenures of Justice Gogoi and then Justice Bobde took it into different zone altogether but we must not ignore role of executive here.
The infamous collegium press conference indicated interference of executive in roster allocation. Problems are deep rooted.
Does any one of you good folks have a recipe/ "miraculous way" of dealing with a broken heart mid preparation. (In a dry state, so my favourite white rum and Limca is out of question, and away from my friends so a trip to the mountains is also not feasible :/ ) I know my query is MILES away from anything CSE, in my defence, the description says its a non- judgement place to discuss anything of soul-sucking sadness.
No I don't have a miraculous way of dealing with it. Only a story to share hope it will help.
So I was in 6th semester of my B.Tech. and preparing to go for training very far away. It was my first time going out of city, yeah I know don't judge me here, so I was kinda nervous and excited. And came this what we call last meeting? I don't know and it was over. I felt nothing could be more difficult and painful. During training I felt alone in strange place what could have been a life changing experience became a miserable experience.
Later I fell in love with a girl from my college itself.
I started preparing with a long distance relationship. During covid we were in same city. Last night she left for her job and this second leg of long distance is starting. I realised it is more difficult than breaking up.
For me to all these feelings are energies. I convert them into more productive form. Try to store them for yourself. Hold on to your strong emotions and feelings. Use this energy to strengthen your resolve for CSE.
Also, it is not different from preparation it is very much part and parcel of it. Hope you will get better at it. :)
Haven't followed politics or mainstream journalism for a while, but couldn't stop getting sucked into this discussion.Watched the gogoi interview on NDTV. Puked again.Areey. You wanna feel better seeing gogoi, see Zee Media's interview, you will love him. He is so cute, intelligent and the 'educated elite'.
And guys a recommendation from my side , there is a program by a digital media outlet called newslaundry , named "Newsance", watch it. I think you guys will love it. Its available on YouTube.
God, the way journalistic standards have fallen in our country! Reduced to become mere mouthpieces of a particular political party/ideology they adhere to. Precisely the reason I appreciate the way Srinivasan Jain conducted the interview with the ex CJI. Asking all the right questions that someone had to ask him.
Was watching some of the Newslaundry videos, thanks for the recommendation . Where was it all this while, how am I finding this so late ! They are hilarious, sarcastic while also dealing with some of the pressing issues in media and the world with responsibility which we seek from the mainstream channels.
Believe me I am saying this thing with very zimmedari. But if we look into the history, majority part of journalism has been always like that. And the people we see as exceptions are somewhat part of it. The same has been reiterated by Mark Tully, and Josy Joseph in various forms.
I recommend you to read (if you have time) Feast of Vultures and The Silent Coup, both written by Josy Joseph, for starters.
True, like Ravish like to reminds us, there has never been a golden period of journalism.
I remember some person exhorting students to sever India's North East at an anti CAA protest meeting (don't remember his name. Sharjeel Usmani probably). Watch that video. Then, watch Ravish Kumar's NDTV news story on this incident. He smartly crops the video in the beginning, which entirely changes the essense of that statement.
Then there was Modi's reference to 'Abki baar Trump Sarkaar' at an event with Trump. Hindu, IE, NDTV carried opinion pieces on how this statment threatens bipartisan consensus in US on good relations with India. Yet, anyone who listens to Modi's statement, and is aware of Trump's use of that slogan in 2016 would understand that Modi's statement was in past tense. He wasn't endorsing Trump at all.
My point being, Ravish Kumar, NDTV, Newslaundary (AAP's pimps), etc are competent and manipulative crooks, who are adept at hiding their bias. Those at ZeeNews, IndiaTV, Dainik Jagran etc are incompetent crooks. Their bias is as visible as daylight.
With ZeeNews et al you know you are being served bullcrap. With NDTV et al, you get sucked into the bullcrap they are selling, and form opinions you wouldn't have otherwise formed, if you had access to a neutral primary source.
I contest this idea of neutral primary source. Neutral is news which we use to find and still find in news channels by government of India. Opinions are anyway biased. The question should be degree of biasness.
Does these so called anti modi media channels are so assertive that they create fault lines in society? I don't think so.
On the other hand you see channels like zee news aajtak republic bharat et al they outrightly disrupt the social fabric of the country.
Elections in UP are coming see these channel debates. I am not defending any news channel neither am I displaying my political leaning.
Anyway my point is their potential reach and content does impact how people think and there are handful of people in India who can differentiate agenda of ndtv and agenda of zee news. We are fortunate enough to be one of them others are out there believing corona was spread by muslims.
Is there anyone who is facing the dilemma of moving out for studies or staying at home ......
I have all privacy n luxuries to prepare with no disturbance at home ......but at times I feel m way too comfortable here n lacking competition ...dat results in procrastination
Basically when m all focused concentrated n able to give my 💯 (which is mostly when exam is near)then I feel it's the best to stay here only
Earlier I thought of moving out fr sure after prelims because at times I feel very much isolated n pressurized (since not left with any social life ....not even friends )
Any suggestions ?
Hi I have been going through similar to what you are feeling.
So addressing dilemma part.
Do things which make you accountable and keep your competitive spirit tickling. It can be anything moving out of home to prepare, going to library, making friends from upsc group and studying together, posting here, any ypt like stuff anything. Objective should be to keep you on your toes. You can try combination of things like moving out and joining library or joining library posting targets here etc etc.
Addressing your being alone part.
When you will move out there is noone to make you study it has to be you. You will have to ultimately sit put your head down and study noone is going to say hey titanium why are you procrastinating come and study with me. This is sad reality of being an adult.
Philosophical angle to it. When its time to rise you are left alone. Have you seen a rocket accompanying satellite in its orbit? Embrace isolation and don't get comfortable and find comfort zone in preparation. Keep challenging and keep hustling.
P.S. Thoda jyada gyan baji ho gyi. Sorry ATB
Everyone's using Trimax, pilot and rorito for mains answer writing, while I am just very much comfortable in Rs 3 use and throw pen :/
What's up with this trimax/pilot thing people? Am I missing on something?
I have been a great fan of goldex delta(use and throw type pen). Lately however I started using V7 initially it was tough fixing grip and finding speed but slowly my hand got used to it.
The thing is V7 has dark impression and curves of letter are clear also there is consistency in flow throughout the paper.

@Titanium same goes for me...making plans after plans...nothing worked...days are passing... feeling guilty at night...cycle goes on...feeling to run away from everything and start afresh....but dar lagta h phir se ek saal lagega....ghr me kisi ne nahi kaha ki upsc kro...but dil hmesa kehta h ki upsc kro....pta ni kis stage pe life jak khadi ho gai h....feeling ki state level ki exam de deta hu...then again thought comes ki upsc hi kar leta hu.....jb se lockdown me Ghar aaya hu idhr hi hu....phle ni parhta tha to Sharm ati thi ab to na sarm ati h na hi afssos hota h bs khata hu net chalata hu ar so jata hu .. time fly anything now a days...lekin guilt hota h hmesa pta ni kya karu .......ab to lagta h man lu ki har koi upsc ki prep ni kar sakta....lekin deep down there is still a faint voice which is always telling ki "ek bar ar"Pta ni kya karu.... accountability hi ni aarai....koi group agr hai jaha daily Target dete ho .... Google meet organise hote ho...ar koi bs ye bta de ki ye kar lo sahi se upsc nikl jaega.....apne bnae hue plans pe bhrosa hi ni hora h ....pta ni is cycle se kaise niklu....
First of all for a while forget everything n take a deep breath
Stop thinking about UPSC n kya hga kese hga ..me kya kr rha hu ....just take it easy
N then just stop looking at a bigger picture n big targets ... syllabus completion
For now u just plan for next hour strt doing dat .....just try to be better than previous hour .....it will take some time but this way things will fall in place ....don't ask for clarity right now ....just forget everything complete small small targets ....u will be sorted on ur own
Baaki if u stay like this n keep thinking about life results kya Krna bla bla ....u will find urself nowhere .....so basically stop being controlled by what you can't control
Just decide small target ...finish it n be happy for present accomplishments
Something is better than nothing
Itna ho jayega toh baaki bhi ho jayega 😀
Feel free to talk :)
These lines are so cliché yet so apt. I mean everytime I go into any crisis of such sort ki itna sara krna ta kuch nhi kia kaise krenge falana dhimkana. I need someone to tell these lines to me. It is not like I don't know or anything even I tell the same things to others. But just listening from someone else at times of confusion has wonderful effects.

As I move towards prelims dominated preparation guided by SFG I am feeling little anxious and nervous because prelims has been my great fear and as@Neyawn says if it has happened it can happen again. So beating my own fears is the objective, which also includes waking up at 6 in winters.

Hello,
Does anyone know of a source (book/coaching notes/topper notes) where there is content about frameworks for different types of case studies?
Thanks!
For framework I referred lukmaan ias initially then looked at copies of toppers vishakha yadav mam saumya sharma mam Siddharth jain sir's video of vision ias mastering case study shreyans kumat sir copy also ritika mam's session from mk yadav's coaching.
For practice I refer vision ias value added material see if you can get your hands on its discussion videos.
Also I remember all this because I have noted down all sources and keep refering to it time and again.

Quoting you
"Frustrating score today. I have recognised a pattern when I revise poorly I lack confidence in attempting question hence silly mistakes and not attempting otherwise easy question. Anyone in same league?"
Revising poorly and not clearing prelims is what everyone - the 99% do. How soon you realise the link between revision and performance enhancement is what will help you clear the prelims.
You have to revise like a maniac unless you are born with the photogenic memory. The good news is when you start revising you mind will expand and your ability to remember stuff will exponentially increase.
But first you have to reach that stage. This is not without a learning curve.
Yes, onto it. And may be this is the hardwork part missed by me so far.
Thank you:)

Good day everyone:)
There was a general query, how often do you guys plan?
Like not daily plans but broadly related to preparation monthly and weekly may be.
The honest answer is that I do it whenever I'm slacking off and I need to re-evaluate. Usually try to keep segment the targets in terms of big chunks (I'll finish X,Y,Z papers in 2 months), small chunks (I'll finish A,B chapters in week 1, B,C in week 2 and so on) and micro chunks (what the google sheet is doing for us essentially)
I usually come back to it every Sunday and see how I'm doing with respect to my targets, then I tweak the targets a little and move ahead.
Also, I've realised that sometimes the burden of a couple of bad days can be huge, so we need to find balance between being worried and being content. Some people split their targets into 2 categories - Bare Minimum and desirable, perhaps that'll help you. All the best!
Yeah I do the same. Tried bare minimum concept but didn't work for me.
But this constant reviewing takes a lot of time and also I feel little doubtful about how can I keep changing my approach again and again.
May be changing approach is the correct approach.

Hiii people. Good to see you guys putting up daily updates will be joining you guys for sometime now.
As I move towards prelims dominated preparation guided by SFG I am feeling little anxious and nervous because prelims has been my great fear and as@Neyawn says if it has happened it can happen again. So beating my own fears is the objective, which also includes waking up at 6 in winters.

The story of elephant and dog, both got pregnant, by the end of year 1 dog already had more than a dozen puppies while elephant was still pregnant. Dog asks to elephant are you even pregnant? Elephant gracefully answers What I am carrying is not puppy but an elephant.

Political fever is on the rise with election season around the corner. Sometimes I get amazed with the level of political awareness people have in general. Opinions I form are usually social media driven or some readings of quality material but people with no access to digital media, amazingly, do know stuff from mere newspaper reading and discussions.

Story of frogs:
A group of frog travelling was through the woods, two of them fell into a well, others gathered around the ring of well told them it was very deep and it was not possible to come out. In the well, frogs tried very hard to jump out of the well. Listening to others one frog fell into the hole and died. Other one kept trying. Everytime outside voices told him it was not possible he tried harder. Eventually he came out.
When enquired it was found he was deaf and he thought others are encouraging him.
Moral: Think before you say it might be the difference between life and death for others.

Story of frogs:
A group of frog travelling was through the woods, two of them fell into a well, others gathered around the ring of well told them it was very deep and it was not possible to come out. In the well, frogs tried very hard to jump out of the well. Listening to others one frog fell into the hole and died. Other one kept trying. Everytime outside voices told him it was not possible he tried harder. Eventually he came out.
When enquired it was found he was deaf and he thought others are encouraging him.
Moral: Think before you say it might be the difference between life and death for others.

The story of elephant and dog, both got pregnant, by the end of year 1 dog already had more than a dozen puppies while elephant was still pregnant. Dog asks to elephant are you even pregnant? Elephant gracefully answers What I am carrying is not puppy but an elephant.
Moral: Don't lose faith and hope when you see other's prayers getting answered and don't be envious of other's testimony. Be hopeful, focussed and hardworking.

Political fever is on the rise with election season around the corner. Sometimes I get amazed with the level of political awareness people have in general. Opinions I form are usually social media driven or some readings of quality material but people with no access to digital media, amazingly, do know stuff from mere newspaper reading and discussions. Anyway moving to usual chores :D

Good morning:)
@Celeborn & @KingSlayer23 You people inspire!
Couldn't write mains but still reading all the experiences of pain made me sad. But you guys made my morning:)
Also@Celeborn can you please throw some light on what helped you clear prelims all three times?
Thank you for your kind words! It helps :)
About prelims, I'm usually hesitant to share any overarching strategy, since there's some amount of luck always involved. Among the controllable factors, what worked for me is (a) strong command over static (except history) (b) good mcq solving skills/elimination skills/guesswork (c) ability to remain calm and think clearly in the exam hall. Beyond this, I'm sceptical about giving any generic advice, since a lot varies from person to person.
Baaki if there are any specific doubts, I'm always free to help out.
Hey I too agree with@Lawstice. We(you and me) had a conversation earlier and I must say your clarity of thoughts is admirable. You helped me alot in aligning my preparation for prelims. I really wished you cleared.
But nonetheless you will eventually. More power to you😊
ATB!
