What do you need to know before starting a PhD? 🎓
I am finishing my PhD this autumn. Looking back on my journey, there are (at least!) 5 things I wish I had known from the start:
1. Progress is much slower than you expect
2. Your supervisor matters enormously
3. Confusion is a normal part of the process
4. Your motivation will change over time
5. Comparing yourself to others can be exhausting
I talk about all these lessons in the new video. If you’re starting a PhD or already on the journey, I hope it helps you feel a little better. I got you 🤍
Watch below! Anything I forgot?
