Yeah, definitely.
>>Interesting to her for me beacase I've also have an interest in
>>taking a Ph D, but not now beacase it would kill me!
You'll know if and when it's the right time.
>>I'm doing my master thesis work studing the earths gravitational fields. >>Mathematicaly it's Spheraical harmonics and some technical way to

>>such kind of stuff. Spherical harmonics is also discrete
>>fourier analysis with the function values at the sphere.
>>Basically measurements of gravity from a satelite.
That sounds interesting.
I had a lot of physics in the past, although it's been a long time.
>>whats your subjects of study anyway?
I'm in pure math, so it doesn't really have any application.
Specifically, commutative and homological algebra.
>>Good luck with finding some balance in your life
>>while studing further. :)
>>Happy to hear you still manage to have progress
>>with this practises also.
It's hard to find a balance, but I think I've come to
an internal understanding. Since I do make progress,
I've come to some peace with it.
>>The one that makes the most pressure on you
>>is probable yourself, believing everybody else
>>demanding you put in all your lifes efort in the study.
In some ways, yes.
However, in my case, it is kind of the opposite.
I put self-limitations on how much/how hard I'm going
to work because I've learned that doing the unlimited
way is not a healthy attitude. Unfortunately, most
of the people in academia are extremely driven, and
actually do have that expectation. Hence the occasional
excuses and white lies told by me to get them off
my back, because I don't buy into that philosophy.
I don't see how it is worth it in the long run,
or why it matters.
>>In my own case it't probably idiotical but I have
>>had an idea of keeping my life goals as they
>>where before I got the burn out.
You can keep your life goals the same, but there is
no reason why you have to put a timetable on those
goals! Allow yourself some breathing room to
enjoy the roses as you pursue your dream.
>>Good luch with your Ph D also. :)
Thanks,
Steve
