How I create accountability for my research and writing

1 00:00:00,000 --> 00:00:05,860 Welcome to the Clinician Researcher podcast, where academic clinicians learn the skills 2 00:00:05,860 --> 00:00:11,260 to build their own research program, whether or not they have a mentor. 3 00:00:11,260 --> 00:00:17,340 As clinicians, we spend a decade or more as trainees learning to take care of patients. 4 00:00:17,340 --> 00:00:22,380 When we finally start our careers, we want to build research programs, but then we find 5 00:00:22,380 --> 00:00:27,780 that our years of clinical training did not adequately prepare us to lead our research 6 00:00:27,780 --> 00:00:29,180 program. 7 00:00:29,180 --> 00:00:35,480 Through no fault of our own, we struggle to find mentors, and when we can't, we quit. 8 00:00:35,480 --> 00:00:40,580 However, clinicians hold the keys to the greatest research breakthroughs. 9 00:00:40,580 --> 00:00:46,200 For this reason, the Clinician Researcher podcast exists to give academic clinicians 10 00:00:46,200 --> 00:00:51,800 the tools to build their own research program, whether or not they have a mentor. 11 00:00:51,800 --> 00:01:01,060 Now introducing your host, Toyosi Onwuemene. 12 00:01:01,060 --> 00:01:03,720 Welcome to the Clinician Researcher podcast. 13 00:01:03,720 --> 00:01:07,460 I'm your host, Toyosi Onwuemene, and it is such a pleasure to be talking with you today. 14 00:01:07,460 --> 00:01:10,540 I want to thank you for taking the time to listen to me. 15 00:01:10,540 --> 00:01:13,860 It is the reason I keep speaking, because you keep listening. 16 00:01:13,860 --> 00:01:17,860 So thank you for keeping me going. 17 00:01:17,860 --> 00:01:26,500 And so about a day or so ago, I talked about the way you can accomplish any of your research 18 00:01:26,500 --> 00:01:29,220 and writing goals by creating structure. 19 00:01:29,220 --> 00:01:34,580 And one of the questions that was posed to me was about how do I get accountability for 20 00:01:34,580 --> 00:01:36,620 my writing goals? 21 00:01:36,620 --> 00:01:39,580 How do I get accountability for my writing goals? 22 00:01:39,580 --> 00:01:46,260 And I want to share with you how I create accountability for my research and writing, 23 00:01:46,260 --> 00:01:48,540 especially with regards to my writing goals. 24 00:01:48,540 --> 00:01:51,340 And this is important because when I first started, I was a binge writer. 25 00:01:51,340 --> 00:01:53,220 Oh my goodness, binge writing. 26 00:01:53,220 --> 00:01:55,300 That's a problem. 27 00:01:55,300 --> 00:01:56,300 But I was a binge writer. 28 00:01:56,300 --> 00:02:01,620 I would literally wake up one day and vomit on paper or in a Word document for seven or 29 00:02:01,620 --> 00:02:03,820 eight hours at a stretch. 30 00:02:03,820 --> 00:02:08,020 But I, you know, to be honest, you can do that. 31 00:02:08,020 --> 00:02:09,900 Sometimes I would even pull an all nighter. 32 00:02:09,900 --> 00:02:13,340 It sounds funny to me to do that now, but it really was my go-to strategy and it was 33 00:02:13,340 --> 00:02:14,340 working. 34 00:02:14,340 --> 00:02:18,660 Things were moving forward, but I learned something that changed my mind. 35 00:02:18,660 --> 00:02:21,620 I learned something and I'm going to share some of what I learned with you. 36 00:02:21,620 --> 00:02:26,340 But the one of the most important things I learned is writing is a daily habit that you 37 00:02:26,340 --> 00:02:27,340 do every day. 38 00:02:27,340 --> 00:02:30,140 And it's like, whoa, writing every day? 39 00:02:30,140 --> 00:02:31,860 I mean, yeah, I'm writing my patient notes. 40 00:02:31,860 --> 00:02:35,220 It's like, no, writing for your research. 41 00:02:35,220 --> 00:02:36,220 Do it every day. 42 00:02:36,220 --> 00:02:38,140 Minimum of 30 minutes a day. 43 00:02:38,140 --> 00:02:40,100 Don't even try to do more than 30 when you start. 44 00:02:40,100 --> 00:02:41,100 Just do it every day. 45 00:02:41,100 --> 00:02:42,820 And that really changed. 46 00:02:42,820 --> 00:02:44,180 It transformed my writing. 47 00:02:44,180 --> 00:02:45,180 It transformed my writing. 48 00:02:45,180 --> 00:02:47,380 I have explosive, huh, explosive productivity. 49 00:02:47,380 --> 00:02:49,500 It's like, what does that even mean? 50 00:02:49,500 --> 00:02:54,300 But let's just say relative to where I used to be, because what you can create sitting 51 00:02:54,300 --> 00:02:58,660 down in one spot for eight hours, maybe every couple of months, is different from what you 52 00:02:58,660 --> 00:03:02,180 can create sitting down for 30 minutes every day, daily without fail. 53 00:03:02,180 --> 00:03:05,580 And when I say daily, I do not write on the weekends. 54 00:03:05,580 --> 00:03:10,580 I mean, honestly, I have my own personal writing projects, but I don't write for my research 55 00:03:10,580 --> 00:03:11,580 on the weekends. 56 00:03:11,580 --> 00:03:14,700 I'm very much a Monday to Friday writer, and sometimes, actually, it's really Monday to 57 00:03:14,700 --> 00:03:15,700 Thursday. 58 00:03:15,700 --> 00:03:18,500 But, yes, daily writing. 59 00:03:18,500 --> 00:03:19,700 It's a keystone habit. 60 00:03:19,700 --> 00:03:23,940 OK, I'm giving away some of my secret sauce here, but let me start. 61 00:03:23,940 --> 00:03:26,780 Number one is I have writing goals. 62 00:03:26,780 --> 00:03:28,140 I have writing goals. 63 00:03:28,140 --> 00:03:31,940 And remember, I had an episode recently, you should check it out, where I talked about 64 00:03:31,940 --> 00:03:34,060 creating a strategic plan. 65 00:03:34,060 --> 00:03:39,480 And the strategic plan is really a summary of my research and writing goals for the quarter. 66 00:03:39,480 --> 00:03:43,780 And so I own my plan. 67 00:03:43,780 --> 00:03:44,780 I think about it. 68 00:03:44,780 --> 00:03:46,980 I say, what do I want to accomplish this quarter? 69 00:03:46,980 --> 00:03:51,620 And I especially focus on the things that no one is going to force me to do. 70 00:03:51,620 --> 00:03:55,500 I have no accountability unless I create accountability for myself. 71 00:03:55,500 --> 00:03:56,700 And so I write them down. 72 00:03:56,700 --> 00:04:03,700 The first thing I do is I write down my writing goals, and I write it down as part of my strategic 73 00:04:03,700 --> 00:04:05,340 plan. 74 00:04:05,340 --> 00:04:09,660 And whether you create a strategic plan or not, writing down your goals is so key, it's 75 00:04:09,660 --> 00:04:15,540 so important, because the moment you commit them to a Word document or pages, whatever 76 00:04:15,540 --> 00:04:23,580 you use, the moment you commit them to paper, you've kind of made like a compact. 77 00:04:23,580 --> 00:04:27,340 I mean, is it reversible, only if you choose? 78 00:04:27,340 --> 00:04:30,620 But you've made an announcement, you've declared that these are my goals. 79 00:04:30,620 --> 00:04:38,660 And all of a sudden, you kind of are accountable to the thing you've already put down on paper. 80 00:04:38,660 --> 00:04:40,140 And granted, that's not going to be enough. 81 00:04:40,140 --> 00:04:44,140 I'm going to show you a little bit more about how you get accountability, because writing 82 00:04:44,140 --> 00:04:47,260 it down is one form of accountability. 83 00:04:47,260 --> 00:04:52,900 But you got to go beyond the accountability of you, because you have accountability. 84 00:04:52,900 --> 00:04:55,380 The moment you write something down, it's become real. 85 00:04:55,380 --> 00:04:59,740 You've made it real, but only you've seen it. 86 00:04:59,740 --> 00:05:03,740 And depending on how well you keep compacts with yourself, you may or may not think it 87 00:05:03,740 --> 00:05:05,500 can be broken. 88 00:05:05,500 --> 00:05:11,380 But the first step, the very, very first step, is to actually have writing goals and to write 89 00:05:11,380 --> 00:05:16,380 them down. 90 00:05:16,380 --> 00:05:18,220 That's number one. 91 00:05:18,220 --> 00:05:21,540 Number two is now the accountability piece. 92 00:05:21,540 --> 00:05:27,500 I share my strategic plan publicly from my accountability group to see. 93 00:05:27,500 --> 00:05:34,180 Now we have a forum, we have a site that we go to, and we write using tools on that site. 94 00:05:34,180 --> 00:05:38,940 And my accountability group, it's kind of like our home base, and so we can see documents 95 00:05:38,940 --> 00:05:40,460 that are posted, things like that. 96 00:05:40,460 --> 00:05:46,140 And to be honest, I don't know how many of the members of my peer mentoring group, there 97 00:05:46,140 --> 00:05:50,780 are four of us, I don't know how many of them go to look at my strategic plan. 98 00:05:50,780 --> 00:05:53,980 And granted, they've looked at it in the past, so I know that they could. 99 00:05:53,980 --> 00:05:59,820 But now we've done the process enough times, gosh, we've been doing this now for at least 100 00:05:59,820 --> 00:06:01,580 four years now. 101 00:06:01,580 --> 00:06:05,100 So and that's four years times four quarters, is it three quarters? 102 00:06:05,100 --> 00:06:09,940 Yeah, four times four, it's 16. 103 00:06:09,940 --> 00:06:13,980 And so I think now we've done it often enough that we're not necessarily going to look for 104 00:06:13,980 --> 00:06:15,980 each other's plans, but we still do. 105 00:06:15,980 --> 00:06:21,100 Anyway, the point that I'm making is that it's a publicly posted plan so that people 106 00:06:21,100 --> 00:06:24,620 can hold me accountable for it, so that people can look at it and say, well, this is what 107 00:06:24,620 --> 00:06:26,780 you said you were going to do. 108 00:06:26,780 --> 00:06:27,780 How is that going? 109 00:06:27,780 --> 00:06:31,500 And I will tell you, you know, these things are not written in stone. 110 00:06:31,500 --> 00:06:33,120 They're not like written in blood. 111 00:06:33,120 --> 00:06:34,620 They can change. 112 00:06:34,620 --> 00:06:37,820 And invariably, what I find is that I've kind of overdone it. 113 00:06:37,820 --> 00:06:38,820 I've overshot. 114 00:06:38,820 --> 00:06:44,380 I've been very ambitious, and I like to be very ambitious and then be disappointed that, 115 00:06:44,380 --> 00:06:46,100 you know, I was overly ambitious. 116 00:06:46,100 --> 00:06:51,940 But you know, so sometimes I say these are the grandiose things that I have planned and 117 00:06:51,940 --> 00:06:54,340 they don't all work out exactly. 118 00:06:54,340 --> 00:06:55,340 But you know what? 119 00:06:55,340 --> 00:06:56,780 Some of them do. 120 00:06:56,780 --> 00:07:03,100 And in writing them down and declaring them, making them public, that's the pathway to 121 00:07:03,100 --> 00:07:07,100 making sure that they move forward. 122 00:07:07,100 --> 00:07:10,100 And so I make my writing goals public. 123 00:07:10,100 --> 00:07:11,580 And that is number three. 124 00:07:11,580 --> 00:07:12,580 And here's the thing. 125 00:07:12,580 --> 00:07:14,220 Oh, what did I say? 126 00:07:14,220 --> 00:07:16,180 Yes, I share my strategic plan public. 127 00:07:16,180 --> 00:07:17,180 That was number two. 128 00:07:17,180 --> 00:07:20,460 Now I moved on to number three without announcing that it was number three. 129 00:07:20,460 --> 00:07:22,580 But every week I make my writing goals public. 130 00:07:22,580 --> 00:07:28,420 And part of what I do is that in our writing accountability group meetings, we all, you 131 00:07:28,420 --> 00:07:29,620 know, check in with each other. 132 00:07:29,620 --> 00:07:30,980 We'll say, how was last week? 133 00:07:30,980 --> 00:07:32,620 What writing did you accomplish? 134 00:07:32,620 --> 00:07:35,460 And what goals do you have for your writing next week? 135 00:07:35,460 --> 00:07:37,060 It's the question we always end with. 136 00:07:37,060 --> 00:07:40,460 We always ask also, like, what are you celebrating? 137 00:07:40,460 --> 00:07:44,980 But we always end by asking, what are you doing next week? 138 00:07:44,980 --> 00:07:47,980 And sometimes we haven't thought about what we're doing next week. 139 00:07:47,980 --> 00:07:50,380 And so when they ask, what are you doing next week? 140 00:07:50,380 --> 00:07:54,020 Then it forces you to sit and say, well, what am I doing next week? 141 00:07:54,020 --> 00:07:55,340 What makes sense? 142 00:07:55,340 --> 00:08:00,660 And then you begin to share goals that now someone else has heard. 143 00:08:00,660 --> 00:08:06,260 And so you know that next week someone's going to ask you, well, how did it go?
