Barb’s new year’s resolutions;
1. Research like there’s nobody watching;
2. Submit to journals like she’s never been hurt;
3. Speak up in meetings like there’s nobody listening...
4. And keep taking care of herself. #startsmall #realisticphdadvice #phdadvice #phdholidays

Barb’s ‘I’ll read this for fun when I have time’ pile looks bigger than she is! Only thing for it is to dive straight in.

When it’s time to focus in a noisy office, you need to get out the big noise cancelling headphones and not be afraid to wear them boldly. #startsmall #realisticphdadvice #phdadvice

Some days Barb felt overwhelmed by the amount of work she had left to do. So she promised herself she would just do 25 minutes of it. Breaking it down into little, achievable chunks is part of her #startsmall philosophy.

@DrRitaMc @ArneCarlos What amazing work! ✨📚💖

@barbie_phd it is worth mentioning that a) these dolls have been critical to my mental health during my #phdlife and... b) the clothes fit Barbie dolls!

@DrRitaMc @IBMSPSS Learning R is definitely worth it—and so is autosave! (or at least saving your work after every pomodoro!)✨📚🖌👩🏼‍💻
