👋 Hey #Psychologists! 🧐 Are you considering shutting down your individual practice? Providing psychotherapy is a fulfilling but often lonely journey. 🤔 It's natural to question whether it's time to move on.
💭 However, making such a decision can be overwhelming, with many factors to consider. 💰 Financial concerns, personal goals, and more.
💬 Before making any drastic decisions, it's important to reflect on why you became a psychologist and what your goals are. Are they being met in your current practice? #SelfReflection
#Perspective #Planning anyone (🙈🙉🙊) ?
2/res Ths who’ve never done #research in lifetime find it difficult to understand, why this is critical, for directing commissioning & using, good policy relevant research [An internal core of researchers is key to success]. For them ideas & analysis can be bought like software📦
3/res Any org that merely reacts to media headlines, & questions raised by critics, is like a consultancy organisation, not a think tank. It can never anticipate problems, nor create imaginative new solutions. Worlds top consultancy orgs. reward salesmanship not analysis… 4/res
It's possible to become #financiallysuccessful even if you start with no money. It may not be easy, but with the right mindset and plan, you can increase your chances of success. #personalfinance #moneymanagement
First, set #financialgoals and create a plan to achieve them. This will give you a roadmap to follow and help you stay focused on your path to financial success. #planning #success
Educate yourself on personal finance, investing, and money management. The more you know, the better equipped you will be to make informed financial decisions. #education #investing
lnkd.in/e4fRa9WN BRITAIN IS ENTERING A NEW AGE OF CORRUPTION - BRITAIN HAS RETURNED TO THE ‘OLD CORRUPTION’ THE VICTORIANS TRIED TO END - TAKING US FURTHER DOWN A ROAD TO A KLEPTOCRACY THAN MOST PEOPLE IN BRITAIN IMAGINE.
lnkd.in/e4fRa9WN Britain has entered an era of legalised larceny by the politically well-connected some 150 years after the Victorians ended what they execrated as the “Old Corruption”.
lnkd.in/e4fRa9WN By this they meant the toxic system whereby the ruling elite enjoyed a parasitic relationship with the state enabling them to obtain jobs and money through patronage, partisanship and purchase.
🧵🧵 THREAD: 9 tips for successful #bioinformatics #projects 🧵🧵
1. Start by defining the aim, scope, and objectives of your project, and by identifying the #biological and #computational questions you want to answer.
2. Identify the #data sources, types, and formats, that are relevant and available for your project, and evaluate their quality, quantity, and suitability.
@KevinClimate "We've developed this term 'net zero' which allows us to move the burden of reducing emissions out to future generations, out to 2050 and beyond. It’s vacuous. Completely meaningless. It’s Latin for kicking the can down the road."

Those who’ve campaigned against bad development have too often been smeared as being #NIMBYs. In my book, they're local patriots. 🇬🇧
We also know #community groups, on the #IsleofWight and across the #UK, have despaired at top-down targets.

We (Theresa Villiers & I) agree. So, we:
a) built an alliance of Tory MPs
b) put down amendments
c) negotiated intensively with @michaelgove, @luhc & others to evolve language & ideas in the flagship Levelling Up and Regeneration Bill (#LURB).

For the second part of the four part series of spatial zoom ins on the trends of urbanisation in Tamil Nadu, we look into western TN.
The dynamics of urbanisation outside of Chennai's sphere of influence is seldom discussed in popular discourse. That makes the next 3 zoom ins that much more interesting to start a dialogue on the regional dynamics of urbanisation in the state.
Western Tamil Nadu has urbanised rapidly in the last 15 years as seen evidently from the maps. The region already had a strong textile processing and manufacturing industry which has matured considerably in the recent years.
This afternoon, myself and others will set out the case for #planning reform.

For sure, we don’t like top-down targets. But most of all, we want a better way of doing things: a planning system with #communities, regeneration and the environment at its heart.

This headline 👇 will be no surprise to anyone who's been following @NHSEngland's plans (and actions) for a while.

First, and possibly most significantly, is @NHSEngland officials' confirmation that its '#FederatedDataPlatform' will incorporate patients across England's #SharedCareRecords:
Why is this so important? Because #SharedCareRecords - which every new #ICS* is supposed to have - include your #GPdata, which @NHSEngland has been trying to get hold of for years (most recently last summer)...

It’s annual planning time again!
Unfortunately, most annual plans are ignored or discarded almost as soon as they are done.
Why is that?

The process companies use for planning is flawed. By creating plans by committee, you ensure the most uncontroversial, boring plan possible.

First, beginning on page 158, are some Directions that @NHSEngland must know will be HIGHLY controversial - given they are telling @NHSDigital to use @PalantirTech's #Foundry to collect *patient level identifiable data* from hospitals...
I'll tweet as I do a read-through, but even these first two paragraphs are incoherent, e.g. "...in a way that will enable." Enable what?
And if @NHSEngland Directs NHSD to use #Palantir, NHSE is *determining the purposes and means of processing* - i.e. it is a #DataController...

Since people are in scenario planning mode, right now, a few tips. A 🧵 #planning #scenarios
Please don't present a base case and two strawman (or strawperson) proposals. A strawman, often misused in my experience, is a rhetorical fallacy, i.e., creating a proposal that no one would reasonably vote for, and then encouraging votes against it. en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Straw_man
For example, most companies create 3 scnearios: base, silly1 and silly2. Then they spend the meeting arguing why silly1 and silly2 are bad, which isn't hard, and thus we have only one good choice, the base case. All in favor, aye!
PhD and #planning are inseparable. But more often than not, it NEVER works!

Why planning has always been a tricky thing for me:
❌My plans are either too big & I get overwhelmed or too short & I lose the big picture.
❌they have no space for changes. One interruption can cause a domino effect & I'd feel like the whole plan is sabotaged.

@tanjil_rashid_ @ZareerMasani @saliltripathi 1. #Partition1947 counterfactuals aren't counterintuitive. #Partition ended a zero sum game among the same stale set of interlocutors conducting a dialogue of the deaf #Simla, June '45 onwards. #CabinetMissionPlan's devolution did NOT solve #India's impasse.
@tanjil_rashid_ @ZareerMasani @saliltripathi 2. #Jinnah accepted the #CabinetMissionPlan for an embryonic #Pakistan was assured, and permitted to secede, come 1957, if the #confederation was not to the #MuslimLeague's liking. Routinely overlooked by #Nehru's #Indian and #Pakistani baiters.
@tanjil_rashid_ @ZareerMasani @saliltripathi 3. To iterate: #CabinetMissionPlan was a pilot project to be reviewed decadally. Just how was #India and #Nehru to embark on #economic #planning and consolidate a #democratic #union of disparate elements riven by #regionalism, #casteism and #sectarianism?

As an Irish citizen of a Constitutional Republic - I am yet again appalled this morning by what I witnessed this Government do to the #Oireachtas in the making of #legislation - facilitated today by @smytho a Minister of State in #DECC from @greenparty_ie - details below👇
On 14 June in 2nd stage debate on a bill on #CircularEconomy & #Mining the Minister flagged in less than 6 lines of words - a major scope change to the bill for "essential amendments on Committee Stage in this House to address some urgent matters concerning energy capacity" BUT👇
17 days later the Government:
😡Had not briefed even informally the JOC HLGH responsible for Planning or the JOC Env & Climate Action responsible for the EPA on the changes
😡Had not ensured a copy of the amendments was on the Oireachtas website for today's debate on them
