The simplest way to improve your writing

[Adam Grant @AdamMGrant]

A mark of wisdom is being quick to change your opinions but slow to change your principles.

It takes openness to update your views. It takes integrity to uphold your values.

A key to growth is raising your understanding without lowering your standards.

Wish I could scream this to the world!

Psychological safety is not about withholding criticism. It’s about enabling people to speak up without fear.

The goal is not to lower our standards. It’s to replace knee-jerk reactions with open-minded consideration.

All ideas are welcome. Not all views are equally valid.

In a few weeks I’ll be going to my first-ever (on-site) PhD interview as a first-gen student with ADHD! Any tips or advice on how to prepare and stay focused during the process? I’d love to hear from others who’ve been there!

The irony of academia: preaching about diversity and inclusion while maintaining a system that favors the privileged and excludes the marginalized.

Hi academics, (@AcademicChatter) I’m curious if the ability to bring your own aesthetic to projects will come after grad school… or is it always going to be “what someone else wants me to do”? @DisabledStem #AcademicChatter #disabledinstem
