Your PhD is part of your life, not your whole life.
You are a whole entire human being with complex needs / wants / desires.
Live your WHOLE life. (2/)

It& #39;s okay if you don& #39;t know what you& #39;re doing.
Tbh, some days, I have no ideahttps://abs.twimg.com/emoji/v2/... draggable="false" alt="🙃" title="Auf den Kopf gestelltes Gesicht" aria-label="Emoji: Auf den Kopf gestelltes Gesicht">. It& #39;s all part of the process. Trust the process. (4/)

Don& #39;t wait: do the things you want to do NOW.
Your entire life will happen around you while you do your PhD. Yes, sacrifices are part of this, but don& #39;t miss all the birthdays.
Celebrate with your family.
Enjoy the things you love.
And do it now. (5/n)

Sleep. Seriously, just sleep. It& #39;s so important. (6/n)
Be kind to yourself - because not everyone will be.
You& #39;re doing the best you can, and that& #39;s enough. It will always be enough.
When you forget, @ me and I& #39;ll remind you. (7/n)
