1. In the first year, actively respond to the tutor's task arrangement, including doing translation and various errands, physical work, etc., but once it is found that the tutor is passive and unwilling to substantively guide the academics, such as never seriously revising the small ** to give a large number of opinions but just the simplest verbal chat type of empty guidance, and the student's request for help is always perfunctory and avoidable, then——
Resolutely change the strategy, refuse all the troublesome task arrangements of the tutor, completely die of the mind of counting on the mentor's guidance and help, and completely block the disbelief of the tutor's paintings, such as helping to exchange abroad, do a doctorate, find a job, etc., and completely devote yourself to the research of your own topic selection. I just suffered this big loss, wasted a lot of time and energy that could have done more research results, and believed the words of the bad old man who was about to retire.
2. Doctoral studies are guided by graduating on schedule, and job hunting is based on holding high-level journals. If you put your mind on things that turn the cart before the horse, such as building good relationships and being keen to attend meetings, you may end yourself with a great embarrassment.
3. Although staying up late can work and the efficiency is high, try to sleep and rest as much as possible, don't impose the so-called early bed and early up, active exercise and other dramas, and prepare for the research of protracted battles with a relaxed and comfortable attitude. As long as you are genuinely committed to it, the results will be very fast. However, there are physical problems, serious mental internal friction, and it is common to postpone graduation to seven or eight years.
4. Have full self-confidence and beloved.
1) Supervise the elders in the family to have an in-depth physical examination (important).
The age group for doctoral enrollment is concentrated in 26-30 years old, with parents between 50-65 and grandparents between 70-80.
Studying for a PhD is different from a bachelor's or master's degree, and the intensity of scientific research writing in the later stage of a PhD must require you to give 100%.
If your parents suddenly fall ill during your PhD studies, and they are basically 1-2 children at present, the responsibility of accompanying them is inevitable. And you are in a high-pressure period of studying for a PhD: you can't send a small ** scientific research, and you can't write a big ** after graduation.
Under the pressure of both parties, there is a high probability that you will die in school.
Therefore, prepare as soon as possible, in the "relatively easy" link in the early stage of doctoral study, carry out health awareness prevention for the elders in the family in advance, and urge the participating units to have physical examinations or self-funded physical examinations, so as to clear mines in the later stage.
2) Don't get into intimate relationships of internal friction.
The reason is the same as above: you need 100% commitment to graduate with a PhD.
If the intimate relationship you are in is an internal friction type, the intimate party belongs to "don't make trouble for a day, feel uncomfortable" and "don't make trouble for three days, looking for trouble everywhere".
The subject's cognitive abilities are not at the same level as yours: they are completely unaware of the difficulty of studying for a PhD, and that it is a critical period for life improvement.
Please end the relationship immediately and quickly.
Otherwise, when you fall into the link of postponement of the doctorate, indefinite graduation, zero income, and the object finding faults, it will be a road to collapse.
When the volume of society has moved towards the competition of the original family and cognitive ability, it is recommended that you plan and prepare early.
