What's keeping you from reaching your goals? Why are you letting that stand in your way?
In this episode of An Unconventional Life, Dr. Fergus Connolly and Dr. Russell Strickland get into your head!Since your are unique and special, Dr. Connolly figures that your approach to your dissertation should be, too. It's all about being intentional, discovering your "why," and then being true to that truth. But, as special as you are, you're not perfect. Coming to terms with this fact early in the dissertation process is perhaps the most important thing you can do for your sanity...and your graduation.
According to Dr. Connolly, becoming a doctor is all about learning how to learn. It doesn't mean you won't continue to make mistakes...just don't make the same mistakes twice!
