Having the option to do do work in bed in the morning. Sure it makes it hard to sleep later because you start to associate bed with work; But it is a great feeling to both stay in bed until 11am and feel as though you have actually been productive too.

Well now we know how you got into your doctorate program... and here I thought it was through you being smart and working hard....

but no it was you taking the option to do "work in bed in the morning."

 

Haha, I do have to admit I only did it two or three times in the last year of my degree at all. But the first two years there were plenty of times that I had lectures after mid-day and so I worked in bed. I have fond memories of that. And in reality it's surprising how much work you can get done in bed .

I suppose all students have lie ins at points, it's one of the perks in the early years. I just used mine vaguely constructively. It was usually on mornings I gave myself off too, because it was during light periods of workflow.

...

But no, hard work does help, I work extremely hard... I can't say I'm particularly smart; In fact, to be honest, I'm actually a complete idiot. But I work my ass off and I have to get everything perfect before I submit any reports and projects, etc... I also work smart, well structured work results in high grades. I've always been confused how many people I know don't organise and structure their work, I couldn't do it; But then again those people often do badly.
