Our first book winner is Luis Lopez, a prospective PhD student! Be sure to enter the book giveaway for your chance to win a copy of A Field Guide to Grad School! More details below (at the end of the post). Now, onto the good stuff! Although not unique to the PhD experience, throughout it, you’re going to have to grapple with making a number of decisions each day—some having to do with more short-term responsibilities or opportunities and some more long-term. In almost every case, you’re going to learn whether what you’ve done is something you enjoy (or simply want to do again) or whether what you’ve done is something you didn’t enjoy (or simply don’t want to do again). In this way, every opportunity is a “blessing or lesson” (to quote the popular TikToker @vicblends).
