Pursuing a PhD 3: I Do Not Have 186 Hours - Week 3

Starting the PhD, I was as planned as you could possibly be. I even took care of all the possible health visits I could have before starting school just so I didn't have to take away any time to do that once I started; now that is planning! This journey is not easy, but I prefer to be positive and upbeat, not sharing everything that's not working. I don't pay attention to the things that I don't have control over, but I am going to tell you the things that have gone wrong in the first 3 weeks just so I can point back to this episode and be like, "remember week 3", not everything is perfect. In preparing, I began by pretending, since I'm a pretty productive person, I could add in this extra 30 hours of work and nothing else would really be sacrificed. That's not a thing because there aren't 186 hours in a week, there are only 168 hours in a week. I'm hoping that the learnings that I take from this can be beneficial to you and whatever it is that you are adding to your plate and whatever you are striving to be as well.
