I'm part of a Doctoral support group and the best advice given is to treat getting a Ph.D. professionally as a job and not as a class.

Recently my current professor said something similar, it takes having a serious mindset when it comes to getting a doctorate and treating as your job, a position, and not simply as a student or a class.

We are not in the doctorate program so much to learn, but we are in the process of being refined, challenged, and developing as the experts in the field God has led us to pursue doctorate training, not studies.

He advised looking at this as in the training field and its time to move mentally from student to you're now looked at as a growing peer in the field.

In the doctoral support group, similar was said but for all those who are starting out, I share the same advice given to all of us, You are there not to learn, but you were accepted based on what you've demonstrated you know and have demonstrated competence in the field through you may not feel like.

The best advice is given and I apply even as a stay at home, being a doctoral student is now one of your other jobs.

As I encouraged other stay at homes and I try to those who are new to the doctoral program like me, embrace your new role in life.

Get up and treat it as "going to work".

Get breakfast.

Get dress especially if you don't feel like it.

Ladies, a little lipstick goes a long way, but dress even if it's for yourself and treat this as a job. Even as a mom, this is your position. Embrace and dress for it.

It's not going to be easy it, but one day you will present, defend and be given the title "Doctor"

You are working toward earning a place of position.

Hello everyone! I’ve been told this is a “safe” place to post any idea or articles! I’m looking to debate and share the gospel here as well! Feel free to give me a follow

Karl Marx’s Final Fantasy

The heaven on earth he promises after decades of worldwide conflict, the destruction of all religions, and hundreds of millions of dead, centers on one promise:

Perfect equality, and no more division of labor.

Somehow, by History’s magic, once no one owns anything and the state distributes all wealth, that all-powerful state will magically wither away. (You know, the way immensely powerful institutions just naturally do. That happens, right?)

And mankind will no longer need to specialize in things. Everyone will be a dilettante. We’ll happily dabble in things, but still be amazingly good at them.

Your neighbor who farms and writes novels, but also tinkers in dentistry, will fix up your lower right molar.

You will switch back and forth between designing airplane engines, and translating books from Portuguese into Swahili.

Does that sound Made up ?

Read Marx himself:

In communist society, where nobody has one exclusive sphere of activity but each can become accomplished in any branch he wishes, society regulates the general pro­duction and thus makes it possible for me to do one thing today and another tomorrow, to hunt in the morning, fish in the afternoon, rear cattle in the evening, criticize after dinner, just as I have a mind, without ever becoming hunter, fisherman, shepherd or critic.

So perfect equality, true freedom, the super-power to specialize in nothing but be good enough at everything - all these things will rain from the skies like manna from heaven.

All you have to do to get it is … turn over absolute power over every aspect of life and culture to a tiny elite of ideologues.

They will run the “dictatorship of the proletariat.” They’ll manage everything for you.

They’ll decide when you’re ready to waltz down the yellow brick road into the Communist Land of Oz.
