Our fourth reflection for 2018 is on your dissertation. Consider why
you are working on it… isn’t it to graduate and have a Ph.D. after your name?
Then let's spend some time in reflecting on how you can work on that in the
year ahead.
Get out your journal and consider your work habits in the past year.
How often did you work on your project? Did you schedule specific times or was
it an occasional thing you did when you had to? How did that work for you? What
would you like to improve?
I strongly recommend that you consider working out a schedule of
specific times when you will work on your dissertation every week. Set yourself
a weekly goal of completing specific tasks on your project. Make it a priority;
keep seeing yourself in the graduation photo, receiving your doctoral hood.
Only you can make this happen!
Next time, we will consider how to find a gap in the literature. 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!
