We decide what research we do, how we do it, how we report it, and we make hundreds of decisions a day about what order we will do work in, what opportunities we will take up and refuse, and who we should ask for support. In this episode, I share the problems that happen we only vaguely, half-heartedly make decisions – and as usual, let you know what we need to do instead. WHO AM I? I'm Dr Vikki Wright, ex-Professor and certified life coach. I help everyone from PhD students to full Professors to get a bit less overwhelmed and thrive in academia. On YouTube and my podcast, I share actionable advice, compassionate reassurance, and the occasional reality check to help you achieve your goals.
