I am really struggling to research for a uni assignment and actually find gaps in the literature that are actually relevant. I am annoyed and sleepy. Everything is just going in circles.
So my plan is just to write shit and learn from the feedback (attempt to at least)
I wanted to be cut out for academia but I don’t think I will ever have the critical thinking skills :(
I find studying to be a constant cycle starting with excitement at learning something new, sliding into angst and despair when I have to actually put pen to paper and produce an assignment, through “f*#@%4 it, I’ll just churn out something and try and stuff it into some sort of shape vaguely like the requirements”, ending with relief that at least it’s over. Then I have a bit of a break and start the cycle again with the next task/subject.
IMO the most important skills for uni are time managment so you can actually get everything done properly, and pulling apart the requirements of the assignment to make sure you are submitting what they mark against. Making sure you are actually adressing the question asked is generally way more important than the specific examples/arguments etc. used.

Yay fixed mindset
Ps get degrees.
