<aside> 👋🏻 hi! and welcome to this Thrive PhD tool kit! i’m katy - dr. katy peplin if you’re feeling fancy - and i know that one of the hardest things about being a scholar AND a human is the sheer number of things you could be doing at any one time. and if you’re going to work on long term projects, short term projects, urgent things, important but self-directed things, and maybe take care of yourself too, then you have to learn how to work with intention, and not work with just as much intention. that’s a lot harder than it sounds, so i’ve made a five part guide to help you do just that! dig in!

and created a database if you’d like to track your own experiments and results here!
