Dissertation Made Easy –22– Get a Buddy

Doing things alone is not always as fun as with others. Working on your dissertation is one of those. When you are working on your dissertation alone you take a few more liberties than you would with other. You know how your group projects were done a couple days early and your individual papers finished 5 minutes before the start of class. That’s what many doctoral candidates do with their dissertation. The freedom that allows you to procrastinate a bit more is often a detriment to progress. The remedy? Get a buddy! When you are working with others and don’t want to be the only one who came in with nothing to show for the last two weeks. That pressure makes you work a bit harder. Even if all the work is done just before the group meets, that’s at least something that is getting done at these intervals. Just be sure to select buddies who are diligent about their work and will actually produce and progress through your partnership. Their progress will inspire you to make greater strides. Also make sure your buddies are people whose opinion you value- that adds to the pressure.

    So true! Doing it alone is sometimes hard. No motivation and no other ideas which will make you surrender easily. Then, writing a dissertation literature review would be less difficult if you’ve got a partner for this task.
