It’s getting close to the end of the year. In normal years, this is a time when everyone says their accomplishments. In which case, if you didn’t feel like you did that much or didn’t meet your goals, you can feel like a failure. This is how I felt a couple of years ago when I didn’t publish any first author papers.
Maybe it’s different this year because of COVID. It may even be worse because of COVID. But if you’re feeling down, I got the podcast for you.
In this week’s episode, I talk about how to bounce back from feeling bad about not accomplishing as much as you planned to in past year.
Specifically I go over:
- What is an academic depression or end-of-the year-blues
- Things to do to overcome one including:
- Writing a “Ta Da” list
- Recognizing that you are much more than your career
- The types of people you need to surround yourself with
- Adjusting your goals so they are more realistic and being easier on yourself
- How to reframe your thinking
- The importance of music and changing your physiology
- And MORE!
