Writing paper
I am getting order and lazier to write blog these days. However, I was encouraged by one blogger today who is maybe my favorite blogger but stopped updating her blog for six months because of the busy work. Seeing her back to blogging, sharing what she loves in life, I was wondering what stops me writing. Open my old pixnet blog which I have been using for years, I found so many memories in it. If I didn't write them done, I wouldn't remember what happened in my life at that time in so much detail. Back to what upset me today. My mentor didn't expect me to publish my work in a journal with high impact factor. I suddenly felt that all my hard work was not valuable because there is nothing surprising in my data. OK. It is just the beginning of writing my first first author paper, and I am already felt discouraging. What is next?

I am writing to myself from 2015. You hard work got published in a high impact journal in 2011. You just figured everything out and made your work more impact. You choose the journal you want to submit your work, even though no one from you lab had published in that journal before. You were so brave and determined and overcame from the discernment from your mentor. Keep believing in yourself and worrying less for nothing.
