Why Universities are “stupid” about your time as a scientist, and what to do about it – MetaMorgan TV

Morgan makes the controversial claim that Universities are "stupid". She makes that claim because they expect scientists to run their labs like a business, yet they get in the way when it comes to a lab's optimal functioning as a business. This video talks about the problem and what to do about it.

A key factor in a successful science career (or any career), and how to do it – MetaMorgan TV

It's called the "shiny object syndrome." Distractions bombard us all day long, from many sources. They take us off track (my new iPad is as an example). And sadly, very few adults define their goals and targets clearly (scientists included), which means that it is easier than ever to get off track. The best tool Morgan has found for this is Simpleology (https://tinyurl.com/yejda3j), but it doesn't matter what tool you use, as long as you do it!
