Mencari kekuatan

Ada orang menyebut, tak perlu jadi genius utk buat phd nih.. it's all about managing your life and studies effectively.

Managing studies includes how you learn and produce what you've learn in written (like proposal, papers, etc) and in verbal communication (such as sharing the understanding with supervisors, colleagues, or even talking to yourself). In the process of learning and acquiring knowledge, the information that you get, remember, understand, apply, analyse, evaluate and create (bloom's taxanomy) is crucial. That process is undeniably challenging, but PhD is all about the process, and eventually you come up with the result of the process, the so-called 'theses'.

Managing life implies balancing between family (if you have one) and studies, balancing your (and your family's) needs be it spiritual, emotional (affection), physical (psychomotor), and cognitive (intellectual) needs. Maintaining relationship with spouse as your main source of strength is crucial. But above all, maintaining relationship with the Creator is mostly important for He is the one who give you all the capabilities (qudrah), will, and strength to manage both studies and life.
