Organise or Die!: creating a personal organisation system for your PhD (and life)

If you’re a PhDer, you know exactly what “overwhelmed” means. Crazy deadlines, an awful lot of papers to read (and that will never be actually read), small work spaces and a life that insists on happening simultaneously.

When I started my PhD I quickly realised that I need an organisation system – otherwise I would be, in short, doomed. After all, a PhD is no different from a big project where you are the manager. And the team. And the client. At the same time.
