A man once lost everything in a flood his house, his crops, and all his savings. Broken and hopeless, he sat near a tree and cried, “Why does life punish me again and again?”
Nearby, the Bodhisattva was born as a wise old deer. Seeing the man in sorrow, the deer asked, “If a storm destroys a tree’s leaves, does the tree die?”
The man replied, “No, it grows again in time.”
The deer smiled and said, “Then why do you think one season of loss means the end of your life?”
The man stayed silent.
The deer continued:
“Gold becomes pure only after fire.
The strongest bamboo bends the most in storms.
And the human mind becomes wise only after suffering.”
Inspired, the man slowly started rebuilding his life. Years later, he became stronger, calmer, and kinder than before.
One day he remembered the deer’s words:
“Failure does not come to destroy you. It comes to remove the arrogance, fear, and weakness that success hides.”

Even if you don't get Direct questions on these types of Current affairs themes atleast you can use them as points and examples in a variety of Mains questions.
Do understand, aspirants, that if both the papers are difficult, then the cutoff will come down drastically.
As per my understanding, those who are qualifying CSAT and scoring around 80–85 marks (General category) have a good probability of clearing Prelims.
You need to understand that whether the paper is easy or difficult, UPSC has to select only around 13,000–14,000 students for Mains, as per the 1:12 ratio.
Out of nearly 5.5 lakh aspirants who appeared, it is not difficult for UPSC to filter out that number.

Vaibhav Sooryavanshi
Many people may think that Vaibhav Sooryavanshi is becoming successful at a very young age. But remember, he started playing cricket at the age of 5 or 6 and has spent almost a decade practicing the sport. So, his success is not an overnight achievement. It is the result of years of dedication, hard work, determination, and practice.
Not only Vaibhav Suryavanshi, but many successful people have spent many years learning and working hard and have faced several setbacks before reaching great heights in life.

For the last few days I have been talking to many senior aspirants and rankers who appeared for this Prelims. It looks like many could score only in 70s , very few in 80s.
There are chances that cutoff may come below 80.
So even if you are scoring in the 70s you should start preparing for Mains.
The cutoff is going to be unpredictable.
However you Just think positively and start preparation now.

My thoughts and experiences
I agree that there are some issues with UPSC, but I can still say that it is one of the finest institutions in the country, which has transformed the lives of many people from underprivileged and vulnerable sections of society.
The examinations conducted by UPSC provide a level playing field for students from diverse backgrounds.
Yes, there may be certain mistakes or shortcomings here and there, but they do not undermine its immense contribution to the nation.
