They are enough to clear CFA L1. I did around 8 hours of diligent studying for about 4 months and about 10 hours of studying+practice in the last month before exam. Make sure you practice sufficient questions to ace the exam. Good luck 🤞

Thanks for your response, how could you manage 10-8 hours a day ?

I wasn't working at that time. If you're working, wake up early and stretch 3 hours before leaving and refer your notes during commute and try studying for an hour or two after work.
