my phd planner

i have been doing a lot of reading on how to manage the humongous task of the phd process.

among the things  mentioned in the how to’s books are :

1.  create a phd planner
2. have an overview of the 3 years timeline
3. use project management to track your progress

therefore, these are among the first few things that i am going to plan and have it VISUALLY ready near my workstation. oh yes, almost all books mentioned about a permanent WORKSTATION ready so that you can put all things related to phd work in one place. Being a very disorganised person, ( though creative!) this is very important to me. i have already designated a space for all my phd related work.  Hopefully, this will get me going.
