• Students who have been highly success in previous academic pursuits can, at times, ‘hit the wall' during their Doctoral Program. When that happens, it can prompt the ‘fight or flight' response. For those who choose to ‘fight' it is not always about engaging those survival skills that worked before, rather to navigate to the finish line of a Doctorate, it may require learning and developing new skills. It may also require letting go of those behaviors that do not serve you well.
