Today we're diving into a critical topic for any clinician wanting to succeed in research—strategy. In this episode, I emphasize how intentionality and strategic planning can help you grow your research skills, break free from spinning in circles, and push forward with your goals.

Key Points Discussed:

1. Developing a Strategic Plan Success in research doesn’t happen by accident—it’s intentional. The first key to strategic growth is to develop a plan.
2. Plan Your Week, Weekly Successful researchers don’t leave things to chance. Each week, take time to plan what you’re going to accomplish.
3. Write Consistently Binge-writing no longer works when you have a full schedule. Learn the power of writing consistently.
4. Accountability Without Judgment You need accountability that is non-judgmental. Create a system where you can track your goals, reflect on what’s working or not, and adjust accordingly.
5. Lean into Peer Mentoring Networks Peers can offer guidance and accountability without the hierarchical pressure of senior mentors. Your peers help you keep the mentoring process informal and supportive.
6. Take Risks Growth in research requires risk. No one grows by staying in their comfort zone.

This episode is packed with strategic insights that will help you grow your research skills—intentionally and with purpose.
