All our Socio batches are now Socio +

🙏🙏

Guys
When did you learn that laziness is not a feeling

That, it’s a thought process that wants
- clarity before even starting
- certainty of outcomes
- predictability of the day

None of it ever happens in life

Winners are those who embrace the lack of clarity at the start, uncertainty of outcomes and that hours need to be found in the day so as to create a meaningful month which will ultimately lead to a successful year

It will always be your mindset
Always 🙏

🙏 Grateful to each one of you for being an active part of this community. Together, we will turn your UPSC dream into reality.

Every one of us holds the highest commitment towards this goal.

Doston, Yeh ek Socio par tweet likhaa thaa

Shared it in my Socio channel
Sharing it here with you all too 😊

15 sociologists who understood society before society understood itself:

1. Karl Marx : the system does not just exploit your labor, it shapes your desires too so that you never stop labouring

2. Max Weber : modern life while chasing systematic existence traps people inside invisible cages called rules, efficiency, and routine

3. Émile Durkheim : loneliness is not personal failure, it is what happens when society loses cohesion

4. Pierre Bourdieu : your “taste” in music, food, language, culture is an inherited class privilege disguised as choice

5. Michel Foucault : power works best when you think someone is watching you all the time and you start policing yourself without anyone forcing you

6. Erving Goffman : social life is like performing in a theatre, and people are performing different roles in front of different audiences sometimes in front of others as front stage and sometimes in private as back stage

7. Zygmunt Bauman : modern relationships feel fragile because society itself has become unstable and always changing shapes like a liquid

8. C. Wright Mills : your private struggles are often public issues created by larger systems.. so if you are finding it difficult to find a job, it might be less about you and possibly more about how it might be the economy at this moment.. same is with personal struggles with relationships, break ups, divorces, depression, infidelity, meaninglessness.. it’s less about you and more about how the society is at the moment

9. Herbert Marcuse : people can feel free while living inside systems designed to control them

10. Jean Baudrillard : modern society does not consume products, it consumes symbols, images, illusions

11. Antonio Gramsci : the strongest domination is when people voluntarily accept the ideas hurting them

12. George Herbert Mead : your “self” is not born inside you, it is built through interaction with others.. so your image of yourself in your head is how you think others think about you..

13. Talcott Parsons : society survives because millions of people silently perform expected roles every day and agree with what rewards come with those roles

14. Harriet Martineau : you cannot understand a society unless you examine how it treats women and the powerless

15. Ulrich Beck : modern society creates risks so complex.. and society is categorised accordingly on how well one can ward off risk better than others.. and it’s reaching a point that even progress itself starts becoming dangerous

Will share more in coming days and how sociology really makes your life better 😊

Just want you all to be academically the best

Aise hi hum Mains and Interviews mein top marks laate hain 🙏🙏

That’s why I absolutely hate those who keep teaching for the sake of telling the market that they teach a lot.. why ??

Why do you want to keep teaching more than what’s necessary ?

Just to say that your course is 300 hours long ??

No, guys no…

In UPSC prep, our only and only North Star shall be relevance..

I promise you, i will not teach you a word extra than what’s relevant..

We will over prepare but only the relevant information… nothing which does not have any relevance with our syllabus or exam… nope …

And that’s how (let god be kind 🤞), we will keep acing the exam 🙏

3 rules to follow during UPSC preparation if you want continued success with satisfaction:

1. Read less but read with purpose
2. Don’t assume understanding is the end goal. Making a process to retain things for the long term is
3. Not everything that is in news is syllabus

Internalise these three arts and you’ll have not only a better grip over GS and optional but also life 🙏

Sharing an underrated advice:

You'd be way more successful if you are delusionally confident

That’s the easiest way to keep moving and reach your potential 🙏

Guys

I want to share more inputs and get 100 rankers in coming months from our Socio groups

Making you use it for your benefit and develop confidence with Sleepy’s content and Sleepy’s direction

I want you to stop wandering
Stop losing way
Stop wasting days
Stop wasting your precious energy

I want you to be the most focused and channelised version of yourself


Sleepy has already reached a level of producing 40-50 rankers every year and it should only become better as we keep reaching more committed students with an obsessive desire to make it through

I absolutely want you to do it

It’s a long journey
It requires commitment

This June I will gradually start choosing students from my batches and get them into DREAM 100 group

No separate purchases to be made
Just your performance in the batches of both Socio and GS

I have made students push themselves and get top ranks in not only UPSC but also States

Now I want 100 of you to make it

100
At least

Isske liye agar offline bhi kholna padaa toh I will do it

I want to do it now
Zidd hai toh zidd hai ji 🙏

We'll be live at 12pm guys.
