    Devotion To Duty, Not Just The Results<\/p>\n

    To summarize everything, assuming that there would not be any harm to the UPSC exam preparations<\/strong> will be immature on your part and slap of withdrawal from reality. It will be appropriate for you to acclimatize and continue your UPSC exam preparation<\/strong> with composure. In the meantime, making every day count until the UPSC prelims<\/strong> without turning into prey to your own desires of snoozing for long hours, involving yourself in entertainment (movies and the like) must be avoided.<\/p>\n

    An excerpt from Bhagavat Gita says- \u201cWork completed with anxiety about results is far inferior to work done deprived of such anxiety, in the calm of self-surrender. Seek refuge in the knowledge of God. They who work inconsiderately for results are miserable\u201d, which implies what it is truly required of a civil services aspirant now.<\/p>\n

    In conclusion:<\/p>\n

    Seemingly, being quarantined and remaining indoors is not a new thing for a UPSC Student<\/strong>, as you would anyways stay \u201cquarantined\u201d as you enter the last round of preparation (that is the last 3 months to prelims). In fact, you should grip the fact that there\u2019s altogether very fewer distraction than there was previously. Moreover, it is the last phase of preparation (regular tests, current affairs, and the revision) which might get affected the most. Provided if you make a good plan for the remaining days, the whole scene will still be a Win-Win situation for you who believe it\u2019s not impossible at all.
