Time to bring your A – Game

 

It is said that Opportunity doesn’t come knocking at your door, you have to find it and grab it. But in your case, it has actually come knocking.

If you look back, you all must be sharing one of the following two stories.

First category is of those students who were totally in their grooves preparing for prelims with full efficiency. They were getting great scores in test series and were pretty confident that this year qualifying prelims will be like a stroll in the park. And then suddenly – “Boom”, there is this lockdown which has thrown away everything in the bin. It’s difficult for anyone to come out of their comfort zone and start afresh. And all of you were thrown into that uncomfortable zone.

Second category is of those who felt that their preparation is not up to the mark and they were praying for some miracle so that they can get some extra time. Well, their prayers were heard. But since they were not prepared then, they are not prepared now. Time flew away in a flash.

On top of all this, many of the aspirants left for their native places leaving the place where they were preparing. Generally our mind is trained to work at one place and relax at other and most of you were forced to move to your relaxing fortress.

The preparation that was hindered and everyone was anxiously waiting for a date to set a time frame. Finally it has arrived and left you with ample time to start your preparation a fresh, reach your peak efficiency and get to the finish line.

Forget about the time that has already gone. Now is the time for you to be Arjun and focus only on the bird’s eye. First and foremost, you need to make a plan.
