First of all, kudos for this plan! No trip to Sikkim is better than a solo one. So without further ado, let's get going!
Day 1- This will be your rest day as you'll be reaching Gangtok, the capital, today.
Day 2- Today, get your permits from the tourism department of Sikkim to Nathu La pass, Gurudongmar Lake, Lachung. Generally, it takes a couple of hours to grant permits, so in the meantime, you can go on a local sightseeing tour. (Refer to YouTube).
Day 3- Grab your permits and first go to Nathu La via Tsomgo Lake and Baba Mandir. It takes almost your whole day to come back to Gangtok.
Day 4- Proceed towards Lachen. You would be staying there today.
Day 5- Early in the morning, proceed to Gurudongmar Lake. You'll be back by late afternoon. Transfer to Lachung post-lunch.
Day 6- Visit Yumthang Valley, Yumesamdong (Zero Point), and get back to Gangtok by late afternoon.
Day 7- Today, you may either go on local sightseeing of Gangtok with Rumtek Monastery or visit Namchi and Ravangla in South Sikkim.
Day 8- Proceed back to NJP station or Bagdogra Airport for transfers to your city.
I have also uploaded many videos on how to travel in and Sikkim and what all to visit in Sikkim. So if you wish to check them out, then here are the links:

Don't forget to take good quality cameras with sufficient memory and some snacks, if possible, to munch on, as your journeys will be very long, and the drivers hardly take a break apart from Lunch break. Any queries? Feel free to ask.
