To the UPSC CSE Warriors Aiming for 2026,
While interacting with many aspirants who have failed prelims 2025 one thing I am observing that they are feeling demotivation, there is no energy, there is doubt in their mind. This is a message for them.
Failure in Prelims 2025 may have left you heartbroken—but let me remind you of one unshakable truth: this exam is not just a test of knowledge; it's a test of mindset. And no competitive exam was ever cracked in a state of demotivation.
You have every right to feel disappointed—but not defeated.
Now is the time to rise with more enthusiasm, more clarity, and more fire. The syllabus hasn’t changed—but you must. You must change the way you read and revise, the way you practice, the way you handle pressure.
Don't just work harder—work sharper.
Analyse where you went wrong—
Was it due to not reading daily current affairs?
Ignoring PYQs?
No regularly practing mock test?
Not having a plan for entire year?
Over reliance on yearly compilations?
Whatever it was, correct it now. Let your failure be your finest feedback.
2026 belongs to those who bounce back—not bitterly, but boldly.
So, sit back for a moment. Reflect. Reset. And then… launch your comeback with energy, strategy, and a purpose that refuses to break.
Your journey isn't over. It has just begun—with more maturity and more resolve than ever before.
Let’s turn failure into fuel.
Let’s make 2026 your year.
Just do this for next 300 days

With you,
Always one step ahead.

Just now spoke to one aspirant, its 6th prelims , everytime starting late in Feb March . Even this year same plan . Please for God sake change your prelims plan start early , Daily solve 10 most imp Questions. Remeber "If you don't change your approach, the outcome won't change either. Repeating the same effort and expecting a new result is not strategy—it's stagnation."
