Love that the technique can apply to other medium too!

I rarely have experiended a writers block, but the remedy sounds good and remembers me of my painters block as a first year art college student (back in 1982 🙃). Just drawing. Everyday 5 minutes. Mine were lines that looked like letters. Carnets full of them. And it helped!

Hey PhD students! This is you reminder to never judge your progress using word counts.

A PhD isn’t just a degree—it’s a transformative journey. It’s where you push your limits, grow, and leave your mark on your field. It’s about passion, grit, and breaking new ground, no matter the obstacles. It’s your chance to become the expert you’re meant to be.

#phdvoice #academicsky #phdsky

Remember, don’t just celebrate the big milestones in your PhD!

Celebrate every little step you make, each one is worth so much in getting you the end of this process. Always appreciate how much you’ve grown!

#phdvoice #phdsky #academicsky

It’s really easy to feel this way. There’s much more support on the podcast, so do tune in and use our free resources.

There were so many times we felt the same way during ours- it’s why we started the show in the first place.

Keep going, those wheels will come unstuck soon!!

Don’t measure your progress in Word counts. Every rethink, sentence, thought, even word is progress.

Are you even working on a PhD if you don’t have one of these on your desktop? 😆
#academicsky #phdsky #phdlife

Absolutely agree. If your her student then you are owed that time, nothing else to it!

A reminder that your PhD supervisors are there to support you and help you grow.

Their time is owed to you as their student- don’t shy away from asking for more help or time if you need it!

#phdlife #phdsky #phdvoice

Everyone talks about how hard a PhD is, but it’s not the research that’s the toughest part—it’s YOU.

The self-doubt, isolation, and pressure to be “perfect” often come from within. That’s why we created our podcast to help you stay motivated and supported!—you’ve got this! #PhDlife #phdsky

I recently started listening to the show. There's so much valuable information packed into these episodes. Good stuff!
#PhDSky

Amazing, thank you very much for listening to the show! We’re so glad it’s helpful 😊

The best PhD advice I ever got? “Done” is better than “perfect.” Perfectionism can hold you back—progress is what matters.

Keep moving forward, even if it’s not perfect. Finish the task and refine later. Progress > perfection! ✔️😁
