Pick something and get to work…

Writing.

Writing is the hardest part.

Writing a lot is the only thing that makes writing easier.

Everything that postpones writing is easier and is not the real work.

Great researchers are great because they write a lot. Good luck.

I actually have written a lot of little small notes, one what I want to do and I think I know (from which source/paper as well) :)

Thank you for the advice, its good to have this kind of reassurances.

Notes are not a manuscript.

Write a manuscript and revise and revise and revise…instead of trying to avoid revising and revising.

Finish a first draft by Monday. Finishing is the important part and the actual hard work.
