Thanks a lot bro. Gotta sleep now. Offline class started btw. Seeya. Have a great day ahead.
Oh nice
Goodnight bro! You too have a good day tomorrow.
Goodnight
Bro , I read your whole diary and got to know you are also preparing for an exam…I think you need to be lit bit serious about your studies … One day you study 5hrs and next day only 1-2 hrs , and you end up wasting crucial time on tv shows… You need to be serious as competitive in India is too high and you need to sacrifice comfort for your betterment …
Just an advice , as I myself have wasted a lot time on anime and K dramas in past
Yeah good advice bro .
Thanks.
These Tv shows and things are not for us , it’s for settled people with good career… I still regret on how much time I have wasted on these shit in past and got nothing but disappointment … There is always a guy who has no luxuries like us and is constantly getting better using the time that we are wasting , it’s the sad truth
That’s true bro . I usually just watch 1 episode per day but I mess up sometimes. I have to be more serious.
What exam are you preparing for?
I’m little hesitant to tell on social platform
Yeah these things are quite addictive. I was never able to control myself
I actually watch sitcoms rather than anime so it’s easier to control.
Today I watched it intentionally, to shade my “dukh” from the relapse .
Well we don’t even know your name or anything, so mentioning an exam won’t hurt I guess
But whatever you feel convenient
In my case when I relapse I start eating a lot …
Just have this mindset that every second that your wasting , someone is getting better by using it … It helps me a lot …
Maybe some other day . I’m a very introvert type person
Yess that does seem eye opening
No worries bro! Whatever suits you.
Ok bro goodnight now. Have a good day tomorrow

Shutdown ritual (planning for the next day)
This video was a Godsend at the top of my YouTube feed yesterday, it helped me be more productive throughout the day, I used to plan what I will do the next day but I never made a proper list then be it this good a way of making a to do list.
Apart from it ate a ton of khichdi for both lunch and dinner , also been eating a lot of sweets
, tomorrow’s Diwali, nothing special planned just excited for dinner as we will have babrus (rigged dosas) for dinner, won’t be playing tomorrow as It’s diwali, we make rangoli and all during evening so I’ll workout more in the morning.
Bro I found this AVRT topic at the end of easypeasy today ….
Yeah it is there too , this video goes into little more detail than that chapter. Did you finish easy peasy for the first time?
I read that book long time ago till 23-24 chapters I think …
But right now I have read till 17th chapter only and making notes also . Most probably will finish till tomorrow…
Nice man .
By making notes you won’t have to read the book again and again you can just revise the notes when you feel stuck, it’s quite helpful.
Happy Diwali Y’all
…

Shutdown ritual (planning for the next day)
Ate a lot of sweets which now I am feeling bad about , I feel like I wasted a lot of my workouts
, this usually didn’t happen to me. Apart from it spent some time in the evening decorating the house and pathway with candles and diyas.
Though I was feeling a certain kind of sadness, don’t know why , was also getting pissed at certain things throughout the day, well I feel like this every Diwali, probably sugar crash or something
. I’ll go play tomorrow evening to burn it all. Will also do better study wise tomorrow.
