“I genuinely want to become consistent and disciplined, but getting there is much harder than it sounds. It’s something I’m still struggling to build within myself.”

This is 90% of the people struggle with. You see people online or interviews of toppers mentioning spending 13 hrs a day studying with a perfect timetable that's followed everyday when in reality it is very very hard for most of us to sit even for an hour and study. Building consistency is really important but also remember to appreciate your progress also. Keep a clear plan by dividing your task into different days. It might motivate you to study ( maybe even add a little treat to yourself if you complete studying. Maybe, one episode of your favourite anime) somedays, you might not complete everything in the plan, it's okay. Try again the next day. All the best! You got this✊
