Investing into my doctorate according to my vision of life

Do you want to pick up future-proof skills and set boundaries in your doctorate?

Then you will want to invest into your doctorate according to your vision of life!

This means, that you analyze the costs vs. benefits of a proposed activity. And only if the benefits outweigh the costs, you consciously put effort into your research projects & collaborations, teaching etc. with the expectation of paving the way into your vision of life. 

Yet, you must manage the risks of demotivating detours from the main way: As a professor and career coach since 2014, I gently warn you about accepting side-projects that will destroy your research time line and plan. At worst, you will run out of funding towards the end of your doctorate. 

You are especially at high risk as an intrinsically motivated, multi-interested curious mind, if you have a toxic principal investigator who prioritizes his / her / its own agenda above your mental health.

Yes, a doctorate will challenge and form you via learning curves in unprecedented ways. But from my perspective as a psychologist, that should not be at the cost of your well-being, from which you will hardly recover. 

So, whenever you are loosing your focus, wearing this hoodie will remind yourself that you are investing into your doctorate according to your vision of life. 

Yes, you will reap in the future what you sow today. But to survive and thrive, you must manage your water and check the soil to optimize your harvest, i. e. your return on investment!
