So I come across many newbies and pupils seeking advice regarding how to practice , what to follow etc . So finally I have taken time and compiled my thoughts over this on a google doc Click here for the doc.
If your graph looks something like this , then you can relate. You can ask more of your queries in comments , I will try to answer them as well. You can suggest edits also if any. Hope this helps.
Edit : So people are asking to check their profile in comments and some in dm , so the whole purpose of this blog was to answer all these common doubts because answering them seperately is not very feasable , I guess the doc is considering all such newbie / pupil profiles , so just go through the doc you will find your answers.
