      Often you have a big question you are trying to solve but that can be broken down into lots of little questions.
      You solve lots of the smaller questions and put all the answers together to solve the bigger question.

      I’m lucky that doing a PhD means I have my very own question to look into and I can decide how to do that and what smaller bits to focus on.
