🚨 For People Worried about Mock Scores

🎲 Given the current unpredictable quality of Mocks, the score absolutely doesn’t matter!

🎯 Focus on getting the basic questions correct.

📝 Use mocks as an opportunity to:
- ⏳ Sit for 2hrs with focus and
- ✍️ Fill OMR without silly mistakes.

🛤 Believe in the process and yourself.

🌌 Leave the rest to Almighty/ Karma/ Mother Nature/ Blessings/ Whatever it is you believe in!

@UPSCneil

When you get a surprise gift from the community.

Find my heartfelt gratitude.

Know that we don’t operate out of this formal relationship so these gestures, howsoever moving, are absolutely not required.

Your support and success are the best gifts you can provide me!

Wishes as always.

Idk what this reminds me of! 🌚

Ofcourse TT, what else.

We are mostly only exposed to successful candidates who would want to believe that it was their ‘competence’ and ‘strategy’ that helped them clear the exam, negating the role of luck.

A narrative like that creates unnecessary burden, anxiety and false expectations out of how this ‘uncertain’ exam operates.

You can’t always control the outcome with 100% certainty either here or in any other domain of your life, the sooner you accept, the better you could focus exclusively on controllables.

Controllables:

-Basic Sources,
-PYQ Analysis,
-Being in the right mindset,
-7.5hrs study per day 5.5 days a week consistently,
-Application of knowledge.

And then leave the rest to the Almighty , Mother Nature, Karma, Blessings and Love of your Parents & Elders!

Earth Day & India's 'Panchamrit' Goals: Quick Guide for UPSC Aspirants 🌍

Earth Day is our annual reminder to protect our planet. For UPSC aspirants, knowing India’s ‘Panchamrit’ targets from COP26 is crucial. Here’s what you need to know:

1. Clean Energy: By 2030, half of our power will come from non-fossil sources. Huge move towards solar 🌞 and wind 🌬️ energy.

2. Cut Down Carbon: We’re cutting down our carbon intensity by 45% by 2030 from 2005 levels. This means making industries cleaner and more efficient. 🏭➡️🌱

3. Boost Renewable Energy: Aim to reach 500 GW renewable energy by 2030. This is about building more solar parks and wind farms. ⚡🌿

4. Zero Out Carbon by 2070: Long-term goal to stop adding more carbon to the atmosphere by 2070. A big commitment to fight climate change. 🌐

5. More Green Land: We plan to fix up 26 million hectares of damaged land by 2030, helping nature and improving the air. 🌲🌳

Study Tips:
- Focus on these goals and how we plan to get there. Check the latest reports and news for updates. 📚👀
- Use these points in your answers to show you understand what’s happening and why it matters. ✍️

Keep it Real: These goals are ambitious, but they’re not easy. Keep up with progress reports to stay informed. 🧐

Exam Prep: Understand these points well—they’ll help you in the exam and as a future officer who might work on these issues. 📝🎯

Remember, Earth Day is about action—India’s plans are a big part of our global promise to do better for our planet. 🌏💚

This is what mindset is about. “I’m good enough to be here. If you get hurt, it’s god’s will. You will survive”!

We ensure that we focus on the peak mindset in our Sherlocking Sessions too.

Hope they help you reach a similar state!

CSAT Comprehension is markedly different to the comprehension questions we’re used to doing since an early age. Hence people find this section impeccably difficult even though in my eyes, it’s the easiest.

May Lord Hanumana bestow us with his blessings on his Jayanti.

May we get inspired to follow the values of:

-Devotion & Dedication to a cause
-Strength and Courage in the face of adversity
-Application of Intelligence
-Humility and Selflessness

from him!

We’ll continue to play the same role for you, as King Jambavanta played for Lord Hanumana, to remind you of your powers and help you ‘Leap towards your Goals’!

PS: See you in the evening on @LIFE_neil for the spirituality session!

Wishes again on Hanuman Jayanti to my Telegram Fam!

May Lord Hanuman bless all aspirants with the courage to overcome obstacles, the wisdom to make the right decisions, and the perseverance to see through their preparations.

Let Lord Hanuman’s journey remind us that with steadfast dedication and divine grace, no obstacle is too great, no goal too far.

This small short based on Lord Hanuman's life will teach you something that 99 % of UPSC Aspirants don't realize and is a game changer in UPSC Prep -
