BUILDING FROM ZERO TO ONE
My practicals are over ,now i have exams starting from 11 DEC to 1 JAN. I have given myself 4 days from 1 DEC - 4 DEC to finish the syllabus of DBMS(database management system) with Previous year questions.
My strategy is simple i am sorting Pyqs in two categories :
- 4-5-6 MARKS QUESTIONS
- 1-2-3 MARKS QUESTIONS
and writing them down on paper and then i will learn them and that way i will be able to get a great score in DBMS.
I am doing the theory portion first then the practical question which contain writing a SQL query and drawing a ER diagram .
I wanted to get done with all the theory questions today but i decided to open my old instagram today and check out what all the celebs and youtubers have posted on their instagram and i wasted from 11 AM - 3 PM of my day i.e. 4 HOURS.
The problem that i faced today was not having anything to listen to cause when i preparing for my practicals i was listening to David Goggins and CAMERON HANES audio books while eating meals and taking breaks from study but now that i have finished those books i have nothing left and i turned to my older habits.
But today also made me realise how important it is to frontload your day (getting major productive hours in the beginning of your day ) cause if i wake up at 7 am and then if i study till 12 pm i.e. 5 hours of study and then i can finish my study with 2 small 1.5 hr sets and i would have done 8 HOURS of study.
So, this is my goal to frontload my day from now on and go to bed on time and wake up early to work hard. Right now its 1:13 AM and i think i will go to bed by 2 AM
That means i will get up at 10 AM after 8 hrs of sleep , so if i assume i will study from 10:15 to 12:15 i.e. 2 hours of study and if i do 3 small sessions of 1.5 hours that will be:
-> 2 hrs + 1.5 hr x 3 = 2 hrs + 4.5 hrs => 6.5 hrs
Let's set the goal for 6.5 hours of study tomorrow to finish all the theory questions of DBMS from Pyqs.
If i make a rough estimate about schedule i will say
- 10:15 - 12:15 (2 hrs Study)
- 01:30 - 03:00 (1.5 hrs Study)
- 04:00 - 05:30 (1.5 hrs Study)
- 07:30 - 09:00 (1.5 hrs Study)
I have planned this schedule for tomorrow, Now to make sure that i don't open the social media instantly i will use an audiobook like i did previously and i will choose "NEVER FINISHED by DAVID GOGGINS"
