I love your videos!! I’m in the third year of my PhD, and as a robotics researcher, I find doing a PhD is the best opportunity to Polish my skills and produce a novel way of critical thinking to tackle future industry opportunities. as I meet the industry individuals and I’m surprised that people who are already working in the industry haven’t even thought nothing like us! Therefore, a lot of money to be made from your research if you constructively utilise your research skills. My kind advice is never to give up🛑 on your PhD !! Always think you’re doing something great for mankind 😎 Ps : Ignore the grammatical errors, no time to proofread

I've been procrastinating on my undergraduate thesis (only have 8 weeks left to submission, and 5 weeks to submit the first draft of the whole thing).

[@alex0315]

Same tips don't work for everyone. You have different set of distractions compared to others as well as what things you like to do in that time. You have to find what works for you and forces you to stay grounded. My tips would be....keep your study table and the room as clean and neat as possible. If there're things everywhere you acknowledge their presence everytime you look at them. The main focus should be towards your table and keep your phone away from the table when you work.

This is game-changing. Most of the friction previously associated a literature review involved clunky methods for searching and organizing the literature and relevant ideas. These tools grease the wheels - they will lead to quicker innovation (that's saying nothing regarding reduced headaches and anxiety for college students writing reports).

Using research rabbit recently, I've noticed that it has a few 'blindspots'. I don't what sort of database it uses, but there were lots of important connected papers it missed when I used to research a topic in the intersection of law and sociology. These are amazing tools, but I guess they have not (YET) entirely done away with some of the more annoying parts of literature review that is rummaging through endless unrelated material just in case.
