@@math-life-balance I did find the advice good. I am actually on the verge of starting a postdoc and knowing I could simply quit in any moment makes me more motivated to stay in academia.
I never imagined my life not being a researcher, never thought of your questions. But I am always curious why people come up with a question like should I go get a PhD and try to be a professor...
Can you please share your experience about moving to a different country for a postdoc position? Is it really as isolating as many people describe? I must say, I'm really worried about this.
It's hard to give a summary of this experience, as it is both isolating and eye opening, both destabilizing and giving new support to rely on -- it makes you poorer and richer at the same time. I believe it is an important experience to live through, and it took me years to adapt to it.
@@Martykun36 Yes, I chose to teach. I got sick in academia (panic syndrome) and then in industry (panic syndrome + hallucinations). I found myself as a teacher, I was only guided by my health in my choices.
"I am sending warm regards to your ego" 😂
Thanks for this delightful pep-talk.
this was such a to the point video, I love your style and unique advice :)
my whole class needs to see this.. thank you so much!!
wow no "think hard if you really want to continue" no "give it a while and you'll see if it's the right choice"
just "quit" (this is good advice)
It was referring to the stigma of leaving academia

Do be a good researcher you need a bucket full of curiosity
Just do it
This is just the oposite of "we selected your pre-print to be publish in our scam web", Thanks!
Nice hair btw
I really like studying math, but I don't like doing research.
plenty of industry jobs where you need to keep up with the cutting-edge results
