How can someone increase his lifetime points and his level course astronomically which enable him to be in the leader board (among the top 20) and also enable him to answer to the perfect,Olympiad and difficult questions . I wish anyone can answer me and thanks in advance :D

There exists no algorithm to guarantee position in the Top 20 Leaderboard if there are more than 20 people vying for a spot.
Proof by contradiction: If there existed a certain set procedure that you could follow to guarantee a position in the Top 20 Leaderboard, and at least 21 people followed this procedure, then the procedure would not work for at least one of those people, and therefore it would not guarantee a position on the Top 20 Leaderboard (that is, unless the Leaderboard admits ties, in which case everyone would be tied for #1, which would be pretty funny.)

If two users solved the same number of problems in a particular week, then the user with the most lifetime points 'wins'.

On a more serious note, you could probably check out some of the books mentioned inMan, what do you mean,can you be clearer?

I mean .. how can i increase my life points to guarantee that i am among the top 20 in the leader board and what can i do to solve the difficult problems in the weekly challenge and the olympiad problems
As far as I know, you manage to be in the leaderboards when you get many points in a short time, through the questions of the weekly problem set.
*It would be more helpful if you let your question more clear.

I think the only way to stay in the leaderboard of a certain category is doing its problem set. However, I have to tell you that I don't know the leaderboards system of classification.
-Solve problems quickly to get on the leaderboard early -Work hard on the hard problems and study up on the topic You can't immediately receive points unless you solve a weekly problem; you used to be able to write solutions for points and you can still submit problems for points but that is not instantaneous.
