When the work feels hard, remember the three versions of you: past you, present you, and future you. That tough task today? It’s a gift to future you. It won’t make the work easy, but it might make starting just a bit easier.

Don’t be too harsh on yourself if you haven’t made the progress you aimed for, or you still have a lot of writing to do. Instead, congratulate yourself on the writing you have done, not the writing you haven’t.

PhDs never, ever, ever go to plan. But don’t be so harsh on yourself. You’re human, and humans make mistakes. Show yourself loving-kindness, and see the mistakes as part of your ongoing development as a scholar and PhD student.

Have you ever heard of a done list? To-do lists can overwhelm, whereas done lists inspire. That’s because the only things that matter are the things you actually do.

In a PhD it’s easy to stare only at what’s ahead and forget how far you’ve already come. Perfectionism blinds you to what’s already working. Take a moment to look back—you’ve made more progress than you think.

In your PhD, you can’t really be too repetitive. Here's what I mean: examiners read your thesis out of order and over weeks, so keep reminding them of your core questions, contribution, and theory. Clear signposting stops confusion.
