How To Set Your Daily Routine To Become a UPSC Topper? | Vaibhav Chhabra | Josh Talks

How does an average student who couldn’t study even for 30 minutes go on to crack one of India’s toughest exams? In this powerful Josh Talks episode, Himanshu Gupta shares the honest and inspiring story of his UPSC journey. From struggling to stay focused while studying to eventually clearing the prestigious UPSC Civil Services Examination conducted by the Union Public Service Commission, his journey is a testament to the power of discipline, patience, and relentless hard work. Himanshu openly talks about how he once found it difficult to sit and study for even half an hour. Like many students, he faced distractions, self-doubt, and moments when he almost gave up on his dream. But one powerful thought kept returning to him — the possibility that he could achieve something bigger in life. After completing engineering and spending time working in the teaching industry, Himanshu finally decided to take a bold step toward preparing for UPSC. Despite people advising him not to leave a stable career, he chose to trust his instincts and pursue his dream. In this talk, he shares the real strategy behind his preparation — not magic, not shortcuts, but a system built on discipline and self-evaluation. Every day he created a detailed schedule from morning to night and evaluated his performance honestly. By giving himself daily scores and constantly improving his routine, he slowly built consistency in his preparation. However, the journey was far from easy. Himanshu faced setbacks and even failed in earlier attempts. During difficult phases, the support of positive people around him — especially his parents, sister, and close friends — helped him regain motivation and continue the journey. Through patience, perseverance, and unwavering belief, he kept moving forward.
