Hello All. ↵
↵
I am a Software Engineer, due to join a FAANGM company this week. A little bit about myself, I am not well versed with competitive programming. My aim is to better myself in algorithmic thinking and problem solving. I find a certain beauty in thinking and solving a difficult problem elegantly. I have finished college about a year ago, and I didn't participate in contests much in college. I don't have much CP experience. I recently participated in the Codechef long challenge in April, and could solve only 3 problems. ↵

Here is my [leetcode handle](https://leetcode.com/rahulseetharaman/)↵
↵
My [codeforces handle](https://codeforces.com/profile/redgulli)↵
↵
My [Spoj handle](https://www.spoj.com/myaccount/)↵

I can spend around 2 hours a day right now. How do I about improving my rating and becoming 5 star on Codechef within a year or two ? How can I improve in competitive programming ? More importantly, how can I optimise my training process to achieve better results ? I request you to kindly view my handles, and advise me accordingly. Any suggestions, including books, courses, tutorials, or general advice from the coding community is welcome. ↵
Thanks
