So I really want to get my PhD and go back into science. I had a lot of fun with my thesis and I got pretty great results.
I'm not really taking any steps towards it, though. I think it's a mixture of being afraid of change and... well, if I actually try, there's a risk I could fail, and I'm not sure if I'm emotionally equipped for that.
But I really want to do it. I need a kick in the butt.
Just needed to put it out somewhere so I can stop lying to myself about it. Sorry, Mastodon. <3

@kaye My two cents...
Change is going to happen anyway. Either you choose or life chooses, but it's always coming.
If you try and succeed you'll have your PhD in something you enjoy. If you try and fail you'll learn that you really are emotionally equipped for it. It might not be as fun as succeeding, but you'd get through it and likely be stronger for the experience.
