Hi James, Do you have any advice for early career researchers who are striving to maintain these strategies but struggling with the bigger picture in research? I frequently find that I am often list-making with activities that often seem like just getting through this week, or to the end of next week, or to the end of the month. And then the rest feels rather unclear or opaque... Thanks in advance.

Hi Chris - Set long-term goals and stick to them. Not all jobs are equally important - find out which one might be put on hold. I would also visualise your journey - have a map in your mind for where you want to go. It really helps if you focus on that. Strategies are not the same as plans - strategies define the What, Where and How. What will you do? Where (in terms of research space) will you do it. How will you WIN?? Keep these in mind and it will help answer your daily question of whether the thing you are doing right now is important.
