    And yet again, I find myself procrastinating by watching videos about “How to stop Procrastination”.

    I have 5 months left of my PhD candidature and I must admit that procrastination and addiction to social media are still my huge challenge 😢
    Thanks Andy

    Great video. My biggest problem is getting over the hump when it's time to address feedback. Sometimes it feels like I'm going up a hill and can never reach the top.

    I’ve had to resubmit my thesis after a hard time writing while being 8months pregnant.
    It’s been tough trying to get my head in that space again especially trying to restructure my work and make necessary amendments. Procrastination has been my bread and butter 😢. I’m giving myself till December to re-submit. Even though I’ve opened my work several times and made progress, I’ve fallen back to old habits.
    Andy spoke about stimuli control which I’m going to try and cognitive restructuring 😁
    Thanks Andy… 👍🏾

      @Ziba Zibs I can’t imagine what that was like for you, but I deeply empathize as I have chronic spinal condition that requires ALOT of medical interventions. So learning to find time to do schoolwork, doc appointments and time to simply “Be” and experience the rest of life has been challenging ( along with imposter syndrome while being at a PWI). I’m in my second year, and your story is inspiring because it can be done. You are doing it despite the challenges, you are still working towards your goal. Keep going !

    Really like the 'start-slow' tip! I completely agree - I have found that I need to 'warm up' for writing similarly to warming up for a run by starting slow and doing easy exercises like quick journaling of what I need to do before diving into the deep work

    Hi Andy, big fan of your videos. I'm from the UK and am looking to do a PhD in Australia (Uni of Queensland). Do you have any advice on this, and what did you find were the main pros and cons of doing it there as opposed to in the UK? Thanks

    it is so essential to just do work, even 90min of "Deep Work Writing" per day is enough, as long as its done (almost) everday :D

    Hi Andy
    Thank you for sharing your knowledge and ideas. I went to the newsletter link but I didn't see any option to sign up. Is there something not working on your website?
    Thanks

    Hi Andy. I have a question. Not related to that video but I wanted to ask how to explain you dropped out from a PhD program if you apply for a second one. I dropped out from a lab which I could see that I would not have achieved anything. I was 6 months there, I made a huge progress (some people from other labs confirmed that I did the same progress they did in a year or two) and despite that, they told me I was not progressing enough. Because of that and several other issues I dropped out. I am now trying to go to industry but I feel a little bit bad if I don't try the PhD again st some point in my life but I am afraid I will be asked for the first time I tried and being rejected. Do you have any video about that? Or candidates who pursued a PhD being older? thank you
