Steve Tippins argues dissertation writers get stuck from reading too much, not too little. Instead of trying to show you've read everything, pick one clear research question and build the whole thing around that. Clarity returns and writing flows.
If you're running into challenges with your dissertation, this might be your roadblock. And it's not what you think. The problem often isn't that you haven't read enough. It's that you've read so much that you've forgotten what to say. So instead of talking about formatting and flowcharts and keeping all your focus there, start talking about your one research question and bring your attention back to that place. What's the one question your dissertation is really trying to answer? When you stop trying to prove that you've read everything and just begin a journey of answering one specific question, everything can unfold so much smoother. Dissertation is a test of clarity. Don't lose your clarity. Comment help, and I will send you the link to our free Dissertation Help community. You've got this.
