Organizing Your Research and Developing Your Skills

Working on research can be a lot of fun, even exhilarating when you first start on a project. There are so many new things to learn in the area on which you are working and so many new techniques and experiments to try. It can also be overwhelming as you realize how many research possibilities exist and how much information there is for you to learn or how many approaches there are for you to master. Trying to do everything all at once during the flurry of new project excitement can burn you out and be depressing, as you realize that you will never know everything.
