#7PhDSecrets. Secret 2: Write and show as you go. It's show and tell - not hide and seek. You tell yourself that they are not ready to write yet. But you are. You need to write all the way through. #PhDforum #PhDchat #acwri #ECRchat #postdoc

early-career academics, if you don't have a website, make yourself one. yes it's annoying but just do it

it can be plain text on a white background, or google sites, or even a free Wix one with ads. nobody cares we just need to be able to look you up, quickly, bc there's like 100 other apps here

#MentalHealth tip: It's easy to forget, but you are not your PhD. If your PhD is having a bad day, that does not mean you are a bad person. You are more than your PhD. #PhDchat #ECRchat #postdoc #PhDforum

A small but very important word to add to your vocabulary.
Yet.
I'm not a very good writer ... yet.
I'm not very good at stats ... yet.
I don't know how to do xxx ... yet .
Yet allows you to learn, grow, develop.

Use what talents you possess
The woods would be very silent
If no birds sang
Except those that sang best.
Just because someone else can sing well doesn't mean you shouldn't
Sing your own song
Write your own #PhD

Multi-failing: Doing several things at the same time and doing them all less well. The reality is we're not very good at multi-tasking. Focus on one thing and do it properly. #PhDchat #ECRchat #Postdoc #PhDforum

Your plan versus reality. In research there will be lots of setbacks. For everybody. Don't get too upset when things go wrong. That's part of research. #PhDchat #PhDForum #ECRchat #postdoc

Research is not a straight line A-B. Things go wrong. There will be setbacks and failures. And B will become C and probably D. That's research. #PhDchat #ECRchat #postdoc

My #1 piece of advice for prospective research students and research supervisors? Choose in haste. Repent in leisure. Both parties should put some work into the choice. For everyone's sake. #PhDchat #ECRchat #postdoc #PhDforum

Comments that can make your student feel bad.
You understand that don’t you?
As I’m sure you already know ..
I’m sure I don’t need to explain this to you ..
I think that’s pretty clear.
As everybody knows
Got that?
