UPSC tips shared by IAS Divya Mittal

District Magistrate (DM) of Uttar Pradesh's Mirzapur acknowledges in a tweet that maintaining focus while studying wasn't easy for her, but she triumphed over all of it by implementing a few of her own tactics.

  • She notes that one of the primary sources of distractions is using a mobile device, and she adds that most people don't account for the enormous amount of time they spend using various mobile apps.
  • She advises weekly monitoring of phone use and app usage in order to cut down on mobile usage.
  • Another tip is to turn off the internet or avoid using the phone. 
  • Divya suggests the use of specific apps like Blackout to block the internet for at least six hours each day as a technological way to decrease mobile usage.
  • To avoid dozing off and falling back asleep, she advised keeping the alarm on full volume but away from the bed.
  • She suggested taking a brief break after lengthy, concentrated study sessions; a 30-minute break is appropriate after two hours or 90 minutes of study.
  • Her advice is to practise "tratak meditation" by keeping your eyes fixed on a pencil or specific spot on the wall in order to improve focus.
  • It can be beneficial to listen sound vibrations at a frequency of 40 Hz to improve focus and shorten the time needed to enter a focused state.
