EPISODE 10: LIFE LESSONSIn this episode of 'A Postdoc's Journal', I read a journal entry from December 2013. This is the fist time I started asking the pivotal question that changed my life: "Should the way I work to suit the job? Or change the job to suit the way I like to work?" I discuss how this question has guided my career choices until this day and I share some ideas about how to be kind to yourself. 00:00 Introduction to the Postdocs Journal02:40 Journal Entry06:27 Mixed feeling about this entry07:41 The most important life lesson I've learned13:20 I thought there was something wrong with the way I was working14:42 Being told that I wasn't performing well enough17:00 How to be kind to yourself19:38 Adult loneliness21:43 OutroFor more information about the podcast and for my contact information, please visit https://a-postdocs-journal.captivate.fm/Please leave a review on Apple podcasts or PodchaserFollow me on...Instagram: https://www.instagram.com/simit_apj/ LinkedIn: https://www.linkedin.com/in/simit-patel-063388ab/ BlueSky: https://bsky.app/profile/apostdocsjournal.bsky.socialFor copy editing and proofreading services, see here:https://simitpatel.com/
