Anyone here got the same UPSC Prelims centre as mine?

Centre: Kendriya Vidyalaya, Paschim Vihar (opposite Global Bhatia Hospital), Kanshi Ram Shah Marg, Delhi.

None of my friends got this centre, so I was curious to know if anyone here got the same one too :)

None of my friends got this centre or nearby it, so I was curious to know if anyone here got the same one. Would love to connect with fellow aspirants allotted to this centre :)

Did anyone here genuinely change after years of inconsistency, procrastination, and self-sabotage?

​

I’m preparing for a competitive exam, and I feel like I’m constantly fighting between two versions of myself.

One version of me wants discipline, routine, knowledge, growth, health, consistency, confidence — an actually meaningful life. I make plans, organize things, romanticize becoming better, imagine the kind of person I want to become, and sometimes I even do well for a few days.

But the other version of me always pulls me back.

I procrastinate a lot. I overthink everything instead of doing it. I escape into comfort, scrolling, daydreaming, planning instead of executing, or just mentally checking out when things start feeling overwhelming. Sometimes I avoid studying because I’m scared of confronting how behind I am. Sometimes I waste an entire day and then feel guilty the whole night.

What frustrates me is that I know I’m not lazy at my core. I genuinely care about becoming better. I want depth, discipline, intelligence, stability, self-respect — all of it. But my actions don’t consistently match the person I want to be.

And the worst part is watching time pass while feeling like I’m still stuck in cycles I thought I would’ve outgrown by now.

For people who were genuinely like this and changed long-term — not just for 3 motivated days — what actually changed you?

Not surface-level motivation. I want to know the real shifts, habits, mindset changes, routines, systems, realities, or wake-up calls that helped you stop being controlled by your old patterns.

Can you build an online presence without becoming fake or performative?

I want to build an Instagram page and eventually a podcast, but after reading so much about influencer culture becoming fake and performative, I’m worried about losing authenticity. For creators who stayed grounded — what helped you avoid becoming consumed by numbers, validation, or online persona?
