How do you stay consistent with DSA prep? Feeling stuck

Discussion

I’m currently in my 2nd year and preparing for placements in August, and honestly starting to feel a bit stressed about my consistency.

I had taken TUF+ last December thinking I will stay disciplined, but till now I’ve only solved around 51 problems. A big reason is that the last few months went by in academics, tech fest work, and some personal issues, so I couldn’t stay regular.

The main issue is consistency. I start strong for a few days, then break the streak and it gets hard to get back on track.

For those who have been through this phase:

  • How did you stay consistent daily?
  • Did you follow any specific plan or routine?
  • How do you deal with days when you just don’t feel like solving anything?

Would really appreciate any honest advice or strategies that worked for you.

Thanks in advance :)
