This is why I do this. Big credit to the students and Juniata County Conservation District for taking this to another level and sharing the experience
@KeithPiccard@CreekConnection My love for Helicopsyche is likely unhealthy, but I don’t care. They distract me more than any other critter when doing snorkel surveys.
@NatureGirl209@PhDVoice I would also add that it's ok to ask for help with your writing. Some PhDs feel embarrassed, like they shouldn't be struggling with their writing by this stage. But it's a continual process of development so never worry about asking for help with writing.
@campbell_ha@PhDVoice Yes, I’m working on this too. I feel like I have to present something perfect before I can show it to anyone. And I’m a perfectionist…so nothing is ever perfect.
I don’t know who needs to hear this today but fellow #phd candidates, it’s ok to ask for help with your research and methods. You don’t know everything yet and that’s kind of the point. Ask for help instead of drowning in the accompanying anxiety. @PhDVoice#phdchat
