Update on OP's hobby of candle making.

Hey guys.

I had posted about a new hobby which I had developed related to candle making a couple of months back.

At that time some of the people from the sub asked questions related to how to start, some helped me further with do's and don'ts of candle making.

Thanks for the help guys. I thought it will be better if I also post picture of some of the candles I made in the past couple of weeks.

Ik this has nothing to do with upsc, but then it's again a reminder to keep your mind calm and keep on doing something which is a good cool off from our daily hustle.

Because no one apart from our parents give a flying f about where we are currently mentally.

Because as they say success has many relatives whereas failure is an oprhan.

I am in the same boat as the rest of you all, struggling everyday but then take this as a reminder that don't be too harsh on yourself, we are nothing but irrelevant set of atoms.

So keep up your spirit and keep calm because the next 3-4 months are going to be cruel.

Bucket loads of resources, fear mongering, new resources, new teachers, new techniques and what nots but at the end of the day the more you're gonna keep your head straight and simply do the needful, you'll sail through all of it.

We have a good community over here. Mods, veterans and other people who try to keep on telling this again and again and yet many are somehow again stuck in the rut of fomo.

So next time, take a long deep breath whenever you feel anxious and just do the needful. That's it.

Thanks and all the best of luck to each and everyone of you out there for the coming months and subsequently for prelims!!
