RE: Keep your Success in Mind: The 2018 Vision Board of a True Skeptic

in #life7 years ago

I love your vision board. It sounds like you have a very positive outlook in life and drive to stay positive. I hope you have a good year. I am in the end stages of my dissertation and my brain is going to explode. There are times it kills my ability to create. I can't wait until it is over so my mind can be free to move on and do more.

Oh gosh thank you for commiserating with me about the dissertation. I am also so so so close to done, and it is so frustrating and difficult. I freelance as a sociologist (for corporations, so mostly market research) now, and whenever I go back to the dissertation it is just pain. Yes, it just kills my ability to think, create, love knowledge.... I can't wait to be done.....

What field are you in, and what are you going to do after you finish?

Wishing you a speedy recovery and a happy new year!

I am in sociology. I've spent time teaching college. Did some program evaluation. I had a baby in fall 2016 so I took time off to finish my dissertation and enjoy motherhood. We have a lot of universities here so hopefully I can get some type of university job soon. Maybe teaching but maybe something else. Not sure yet....

Ooooh, yes, now I remember that you commented on my intro post :) So much new here that I was losing track of people. Thanks for reminding me.
