While deep selfstudy and problem solving with introspection and selfanalysis are important, there does not seem to be enough time for doing all this. This is a problem eternally facing many students.

In this video I provide some strategies and the attitude to take in order to handle this situation:

1. What does selfstudy really mean?
2. Acknowledge and accept that there will be some gifted students who can finish things faster than us.
3. Don't get discouraged by others pace. Stick to the discipline of studying in a fundamentally proper way. Initial chapters are going to be hard. Sacrifice is necessary. But things get better with time.
4. Our brains become better at this deep mode of study; our problem solving skills improve with time. The latter chapters are boosted by the background knowledge developed in the initial chapters.
5. Taking short cuts may apparently help us to catch up initially but leaves gaping loopholes in our preparation. Plus, how many short cuts can one remember? It is just easier in the long run to go by the route of developing one's fundamental knowledge that type of knowledge itself becomes the short cut.
6. Never compare yourself with others. Focus on improving yourself little by little each week.
