Accept help graciously.

Consider asking for, and accepting, as much help as you can during this process. Use all the talents and resources of your friends and family. Allow them to help you. Writing a dissertation can be lonely and isolating- not just for you, but also for your family & friends who want to help but just don’t know what to do. Let your family and friends do nice things for you (you can reciprocate later) and allow everyone to support you in their own way.
