Grad School Chronicles- Research is 'pretty much' life and vice-versa- III

10. Always remember what things you are good at (even pouring wine or water counts), especially during bad days.

11. Tortoise (slow and steady wins the race) principle applies: Research and life, both, are marathons.

12. Control the bidirectional(lab life to life)seepage of stress which is another way of saying keep both life separate. Nothing seeps better than the stress.

13. Pain is the tuition fee you pay to life teacher in order to learn. More you will avoid it,more it will come to haunt you. Do you still want to learn?

14. Never lose trust in your samples. They are as great as you are.

15. Take credit for your messed up experiments because then only you will be better messed up.
