Using any one or all of the books or articles in the dissertation planning resources or any other book or website of your choice as a guide, write a paper in which you discuss possible obstacles to completing your dissertation (see attached document “clark-btm7109-6); strategies you will use to avoid or overcome them; and generally, how you will take care of yourself throughout the rest of you career as a doctoral student. Or, if you don’t want in any way to focus on negatives, identify the positives you will embrace to keep on a path to success!

The paper does not have to be in APA format. Actually, it should be in a format that is easy for you to refer to and use. Print it and keep it by your desk or save it as an icon on your desktop. If your plan includes making a plan or a timeline as part of this assignment, keep that handy too.
