Belief

In order to be successful at completing the dissertation, you need to first believe that you can do it. Belief is a really important component because it is the underlying foundation for all of the actions that you take. If you truly and honestly don’t believe that you can complete the dissertation, you probably, unfortunately, will be right.

When you look at your belief system or your belief level around the dissertation, chances are that it could use a little bit of bolstering. This is especially true if you’ve been in the dissertation process for awhile, or if you’ve recently gotten some negative feedback or criticism, or if you just in general are feeling frustrated at the rate of progress or lack of progress, whatever the case may be.

So when we talk about bolstering your beliefs, what we are really talking about is shifting your attention and shifting your focus. I believe that whatever you focus on in your life gets bigger.

Take time today to think about your beliefs around the dissertation. Are you speaking the language of courage or the language of fear?
