I have really been struggling to complete any one project this week, bouncing between reading abstracts for an upcoming conference, writing an ethics proposal for a retrospective study, recruiting and data entry of the data that I have so far. I'm finding that I have islands of time when I am extremely successful and get my goals for the time done. But I've had a lot of potato time this week. Sitting in front of the laptop, feeling like a potato. I have a lot of good intentions, but I'm burning through my energy very quickly. Or even finding it hard to get a day started. And then I feel my anxiety levels rise. I am have not met my goals for the morning so the entire day feels like a write off. Which just isn't true, most of my best work is completed in the afternoon or at night, I just need to get used to setting aside that time for PhD work and face the fact that, when it comes to self-directed learning, I'm never going to be a morning person.
At least I've added to the blog.
