In this episode, we focus on an upcoming event ‘A Month of Mondays’ - which is designed to help PhD researchers plan for a productive Summer.
We talk about getting ready for the summer and Kate touches on many of the issues that come up for doctoral candidates over the season. She addresses how to plan effectively, making the best use of your personal resources. She talks about how you can make goals actionable and achievable and how to maintain motivation.
We also discuss the importance of rest and how to manage the rhythm of your work across the summer.
Kate leaves us with a top tip around identifying priorities.
