The small research habit that changed my busy month after 43 tries
I started this because my rainy evening felt a little stuck, and physics seemed like a manageable place to experiment. The funny part is that the smallest change was the one I kept.
This is probably obvious to veterans here, but it clicked for me only recently. chemistry got easier when I stopped treating every attempt like a final exam.
My current rule is simple: if it takes less than 6 minutes to prepare, I am much more likely to keep doing it.
