The Best Dissertation

I turned in a draft of my chapter 2 last night to my advisor; the first twenty pages of my dissertation. Lately, my motivation for writing, creating, developing anything outside my dissertation has waned. Forgive me for not having written in some time. I told someone today that I no longer have a to "do list", but more of a "dropped ball" list or a "fix it" list that has grown over the past two or three weeks from various things I have neglected. My appologies if you know you are on that list.

I'm motivated to get done with the dissertation process. And when I start beating up on myself for how lousy my writing is or how lazy I feel, when I just want to start all over, I just remind myself that

THE BEST DISSERTATION IS A DONE DISSERTATION

and keep plugging away.
