And my daily routine:

I wake up at 5 am.

Get to the gym at 5:30 am.

While working out, I listen to a science podcast for 1h.

Have breakfast and respond to emails at 7:30 am.

Reach to my lab at 8 am. 

Work until 6 pm.

Have a dinner at 7 pm.

Read research reviews for 60 mins.

Read a book for another 60 mins.

Write down the work plan for the next day.

9 pm: I’m in bed, thrilled to start another super-day in 8 hours.

▫️

Sounds perfect, right?

Except that this is not real. It’s NOT about me.

▫️

In real life:

- I can get sick of office work

- I can get sick of writing grants, papers, reports

- I can get sick of working in a lab (hell, yes!)

- I can get too tired for a gym

▫️

My life as a scientist is not about productivity. 

It’s about creativity and fulfillment.

Such a daily routine can quickly exhaust us, mentally and physically.

▫️

As a student, postdoc or faculty:

Do NOT feel guilty when you get sick of your lab duties.

Do NOT feel ashamed of your slow writing process.

Do NOT get upset by your mental and physical fatigue.

▫️

Your strength is in your personality and curiosity. Not a productive daily routine.

Extremely delighted to share my first ever first-author paper on the unusual growth behavior of #paracetamol #crystals post breakage 🎉
Such a common molecule, yet so unique! Can't wait to explore further 🔬

West Godavari district to Lahore to Kailas Manasarovar (as a spy) and back to WG Dt. What a life! How come we don't know more about such remarkable people?
