@ZJAyres Yes 🙌🙌 love this! I have also stopped planning my life and putting pressure on myself. I have also changed my definition of success, and that does not involve being wealthy and in a top career! 💪

How about dedicating at least one session in every conference to discuss negative results? It’s time we normalise reporting negative results!

Kindness costs nothing, everyone can afford to be kind 🙌

[Harmit S. Malik @HarmitMalik]

Almost everyone I know is struggling right now. I don’t say this to be a huge downer but instead to argue that we should try to be kind as much as possible. Don’t assume that things are okay because they look ok from the outside.

Just a reminder for anyone who needs it.
Unclench your jaw, relax your shoulders and breathe 👍
