FREE WRITE! I FIND IT VERY HELPFUL. WRITE EVERYTHING DOWN POSSIBLE ABOUT WHAT IT IS YOU WANT TO RESEARCH. JUST GET IT ALL OUT. TRY NOT TO FOCUS ON SCHOLARLY LANGUAGE OUR PROSE, JUST WRITE IT JARGON FREE IF POSSIBLE. DO THAT FOR ABOUT A WEEK OR TWO, EVERYDAY TWENTY MINUTES MAX. AFTER YOUR TIME IS UP READ THROUGH YOUR FREE WRITES, WHAT THEMES AND OR QUESTIONS DO YOU SEEM TO GRAVITATE TOWARDS...WHAT ARE YOU WRITING ABOU THE MOST. ASK YOURSELF WHY AND POOF YOU GOT IT! HOPE THAT WORKS...

HANG IN THERE AMANITA! IT IS VERY DOABLE! I FELT THE EXACT WAY WHEN I STARTED MY PROGRAM...FOCUS ON WHAT YOU DO KNOW, NOT WHAT OTHERS DO! IF YOU WANT MORE STRUCTURE, IMPLEMENT IT YOURSELF! COME UP WITH A PLAN AND ASK YOUR ADVISORS TO ASSIST YOU WITH IT! YOU CAN MAKE YOUR PHD EXPERIENCE WHAT YOU WANT TO MAKE IT!

Dazed and confused with PhD
