As you’re making the to do list for next week, consider using the Eisenhower Decision Matrix to help you prioritize the tasks accordingly.

👉Do. Decide. Delegate. Delete.

Does it look useful to you?

#Academia #Academics #AcademicSky #Resource #Prioritization
Image source: luxafor.com/the-eisenhower-matrix The Eisenhower Decision Matrix categories include: 1. Urgent and important - Do it now. 2. Urgent but not important - Delegate. 3. Not urgent but important - Decide and schedule time to do it. 4. Not urgent and not important - Delete, eliminate the task.

1. It’s that time of the year. The WMO State of the Climate Update was released today(ish), taking momentary stock of where the climate is. So, some climate nuggets. 🧵
Twelve graphs (arranged in three columns and four rows) covering the period 1960 to 2024. Starting top left these are Carbon Dioxide, Ocean heat content, glacier mass, methane concentrations in the atmosphere, global mean sea level, Greenland ice sheet cumulative mass balance, nitrous oxide concentrations in the atmosphere, arctic sea ice extent, Antarctic ice sheet mass balance, global mean temperature, Antarctic sea ice extent and ocean pH. Data from various sources.

Scientists, academics, researchers: We’re excited to share that @altmetric.com is now tracking mentions of your research on Bluesky! 🧪
altmetric.com Altmetric @altmetric.com · Dec 3
There are already many articles for which there is more attention on Bluesky than on other comparable micro-blogging sites, meaning the academic community and the general public have clearly adopted Bluesky as one of its core places to disseminate and discuss new research.

A Place of Joy.

Watch out for signs of burnout! Set boundaries and take care of your mental (and physical) health.

Great infographic by Dr. Carolyn Frost⬇️

8 quiet signs your boundaries need a reset. By Dr. Carolyn Frost, Strategic Lifestyle Design. 1️⃣ You apologize for basic needs 2️⃣ You're always available 3️⃣ You feel resentment building 4️⃣ You don't take your paid time off 5️⃣ You respond instantly to everything 6️⃣ You feel guilty setting limits 7️⃣ You over-explain everything 8️⃣ You default to 'yes'

Failure.

My gut reaction to ignore, underplay, and suppress failure has taught me nothing.

I push myself, and encourage you, to embrace the ’why’ and ’how’ of failure in an effort to grow and understand the underlying causes and contributing factors.
