Oliver Bogler, Chief Executive Officer of Night Science Institute and Strategic Advisor at Barnacle Labs, shared on LinkedIn:
“Approximately 47 articles will be published this July about how to maximize your summer productivity as an academic.
Read more. Write more. Submit more. Optimize your routines. Build systems. Clear the backlog.
I’m not going to write that article.
Here’s what I’d suggest instead: at some point between now and Labor Day, spend 45 minutes asking yourself whether the career you’re working this hard to be productive inside is still the career you actually want.
Not whether you’re good at it. You’re probably good at it. Whether it’s still the right fit. Whether the next decade looks like something you chose, or something that chose you by default.
That 45 minutes is harder than any productivity article. It’s also more useful.”
