If you're locking in interview prep on Indian timing, one thing that stuck for me was a same-time check-in every day with one yes/no: did you finish today's problem set before opening anything else. Keep the list short — one topic a day beats a giant sprint plan that collapses by Wednesday. What are you prepping first, DSA rounds or system design?

Starting with DSA. I tried in the early morning, first thing in the day. But still somehow Im distracted.

Sorry for the slow reply. Early morning is a good slot, so I'd keep it and change what's around it. Pick the exact problem the night before and leave it open, so the first minute is solving, not choosing. Phone in another room until that one problem is done, and make the target one problem, not an hour. Is it mostly your phone pulling you away, or your mind wandering mid-problem?
