A simple but effective structure:
A beginning
A middle and
An end.
And then try to link your ending to the beginning.

PhD students often tell me they have no idea how their research is going. You could ask your supervisor:
Am I on track?
Is this where I should be by now?
How do you think I’m going?

Plans v Reality. And maybe some sharks in the water too.

This is the key role of the supervisor: To calm down the completely lost first-year PhD student.

Starting a ? Warning: Steep learning curve ahead.
As you start reading the literature you will begin to realise how little you know. That's OK. It's normal. You are learning. That's why you're doing the PhD.

We tend to be over-optimistic in setting goals which leads to feeling guilty when we don't achieve them. Remember:
Everything takes longer than you think.
Everything takes longer the first time.

We think: I'll get it all clear in my head and then write it down.
More likely: When you write it down, then it becomes clearer.

Your plan versus reality. In research there will be lots of setbacks. For everybody. Don't get too upset when things go wrong. That's part of research.

Ever tried. Ever failed.
No matter.
Try again.
Fail again.
Fail better.
