1>    Work smart not just hard:- Most of us are used to working hard. Our education system is such that unless we cram tens of books each year, whether or not we understand what’s inside the book is immaterial, we cannot progress to the higher level.

2>    Only do a single task at a time:-  the candidates should need to prepare history, geography, current affairs, mental ability etc. Only thing is don’t prepare all at once. Chunk it down.only Pick one subject at a time

3>    Implement the just in time approach:- The JiT (Just in Time) Approach says we should seek information only when required at that moment. In this hyper-connected world there is an overdose of information and if you seek to acquire all information and knowledge before starting a task, you can never get started as you will lose yourself in the information maze.
