As
2018 winds down, it is worthwhile to reflect on different aspects of
your life and how these aspects relate to your dissertation plans and progress.
Over the next few posts we will consider these; I encourage you to take some
time with each and write about them in your journal.
Today, let's consider your family. In 2018, how have you done with
balancing the demands of your family life? What crises have arisen? What
successes and new developments have taken place? Consider how you might improve
things in 2019. Perhaps you can dedicate certain hours of the week just for
certain family members (e.g., partner/spouse and children). A date night with
your spouse can do wonders for communication and support. Setting aside time
for weekly family meetings, where everyone can share their ideas and issues,
can lead to more time available for other things in your life (like your
dissertation).
Next time, we will reflect on work. Do you have an issue or
a question that you would like me to discuss in a future post? Would you like
to be a guest writer? Send me your ideas! leann.stadtlander@waldenu.edu
