142. Handling Work-From-Home Distractions, and Re-Evaluating Grad School (Q&A)
Episode 142
Losing focus midweek when working from home? Debating whether changing grad programs is worth it?
In this Q&A episode of the podcast, I answer two questions submitted by listeners of the show.
Question 1: A listener asks for strategies to maintain their focus when working from home, especially during the second half of the week.
Question 2: A listener, who's a working professional and a graduate student, wonders if they should change their grad program to match their new career interests.
Q&A episodes are a great way to learn about what others are struggling with because there's a good chance you're dealing with something similar.
