“First, I sleep on it and let the subconscious do its great work. Then, I sit down and try to break down the obstacle into smaller parts. I try to explore if there are other paths around the obstacle, ones that I haven’t thought about. For big obstacles, after I have drafted a plan, I always call a close colleague, someone that I trust, to run it by them. Often the situation might be much clearer from a more distant perspective. These chats help me sound out if there is an obvious path that I have missed or maybe I am too emotionally involved in obstacle to see the solution clearly.”

“Two tricks that always help me are first to break down my plan into many small tasks that can be accomplished in short periods of time. For example if I have to give a big talk on a subject that I not as familiar with, then I find a list of papers that I want to read, and I read one paper a day. This helps me make the project tangible and less scary. Instead of ‘God, I have to give a huge talk!’, I have transformed the problem into ‘I need to read these 10 papers.’. In this way as well, I can easily measure my progress and the obstacle feels less daunting.”

“The second trick is that I keep a small notebook with a list of success that I am proud of. So many times I find that I can recall of my failures or embarrassing moments in an instant. In contrast, all of my successes seem easily forgotten. When I find myself overwhelmed in a moment of panic, this list helps me remind myself of all the tough things that I have successfully overcome in the past. I tell myself - you did it then, you can do it now. Don’t be discouraged.”
