Review just received by a fresh PhD ☹️: "This could have had potential if it weren't for the poor design, weak theoretical framing, inadequate literature review, unsound statistical testing, and superficial analysis. I recommend rejection, esp. since it isn't very original or insightful."

My two best tips for dealing with academic (and other) disappointments are 1. walking in nature and 2. laughing, preferably simultaneously! 😀

Within the last 24 hours, I’ve turned down three peer reviews and a co-editor role for a special issue. Not because these aren’t important—I love supporting others—but because I need to take care of myself and do well in the commitments I’ve already made. Say no sometimes and go for a walk instead!
