📝Journal entry A few weeks ago, I submitted my first chapter with 18,000 words for my first year PhD annual review, and it is a very important milestone for me as I passed my annual review 🎉 At 40, my brain doesn’t work the same 🤪 when I did my MBA in 20s and MSc in 30s, I have a long way to go, I have not even started yet. And here is what I learned (unlearned basically) during the process - ✍🏽The shift from blog/article writer to purely academic writer ✍🏽Now I don’t read or write anything that is not backed by a research. Says who? is my first thought when someone claims something or make grandeur statements ✍🏽Writing requires discipline and thanks to my consistency with my blog, writing was not a problem, enhancing the writing style was ✍🏽Getting rid of generalisation and my own assumptions as a researcher We carry so much that we do not realise how big of a deal it is to keep moving despite so many things weighing us down.The struggle no one sees and cares about and we keep going because not doing is not an option at all. #phdmom #womenentrepreneurship
