"Still on track with the PhD research, but should now make rapid progress in analysis and writing up papers 2 and 3. Increasingly, own initiative and independent reflection on the data will be expected."
Was my Prof's response to my recent progress report. I may be thinking too much but this sounds a bit harsh . Maybe I am used to receiving compliment from him, didn't he say I'm right on track every time I ask him about my progress? Or maybe I have taken things for granted and should now really work my ass off.
Being sleepless the last few nights doesn't help. And I'm having another breakout. I shall still think positive though.
