Feedback: What you mean might not be what they hear.

There's never going to be the 'perfect time.'. Instead of waiting to feel 'ready,' just start.

4. Routines
Routines can seem boring but they provide structure. They can be helpful in an unstructured research environment. Use the planner to map out your routines for the week. From: 52 Ways to Stay Well. buff.ly/2S21zQq

A great piece by a leading scientist about the impact of fear on researchers and their research.

3. Say NO to shiny balls
You need to buy yourself a little time to think. Wait for your rational brain to come back and make a realistic decision. Perhaps you could negotiate or offer an alternative. From: 52 Ways to Stay Well. buff.ly/2UnQkDn

3. Say NO to shiny balls
If you want to survive in academia or research you have to learn to say NO. There are so many opportunities that will 'look good on your cv'. Easy to burn out.

3. Say NO to shiny balls
But then along comes a new shiny ball. At this moment you get emotionally ambushed. You no longer think clearly and the word YES tumbles out of your mouth.

2. Real hours
Many researchers I know put in very long hours. But sometimes these are fantasy hours. This is where you’re at work but not doing very much work.
