Letting go of unfinished projects

January 14

Episode Description

As you progress through your academic career, you accumulate projects that you didn't get around to finishing. 

Conference papers you meant to turn into articles. Articles that got stalled and abandoned. That kind of thing. 

You don't have to finish all of them, but you also don't want to just abandon them. 

In this track I suggest away to approach that pile of UFOs, make some initial decisions, and resume work on one of them.
