Dr. TLK _ My 2018 Diary_ Jan 22nd, 2018_ A day from my life as a scientist ๐
Today, I went to work to do some experiments, so I asked a colleague of mine to take pictures of me while working to show you a day in my life as a scientist. This post will be special to me because I am leaving the research life (for good) in two weeks.
My day in the laboratory
Here I was working with some cells under the biological hood
After that, I went to check the cells under the microscope. It is always good to check them to see how they are doing after adding the treatment. This is a very important step because, in case something went wrong, it allows me to notice any problem quickly.
Finally, when I made sure the cells look fine. I put them in the incubator to stay alive and happy until the treatment time is over.
What was on the menu for today?
| Breakfast | Nutritional Value: ~ 500 Cal |
|---|
I had almond butter and jam sandwich
| Lunch | Nutritional Value: ~ 400 Cal |
|---|
For lunch I had the leftovers from yesterday's dinner and tea with milk
| Dinner | Nutritional Value: ~ 600 Cal |
|---|
I made some fava beans. This time I added feta cheese on the top with some veggies
| Midnight snack | Nutritional Values: ~ 200 Cal |
|---|
Not sure yet
Estimated Total Cal Intake: ~ 1700 (With the midnight snack)
Estimated Total Cal Burned: ~ 1700 (based on Fitbit)
Estimated Total Spending: ~ 5$
Final Notes:
- I had about 42 min of active walking today.
All in all, the day was good ๐
...Till Next Episode!

Nice pics. Similar to those on Hollywood movies. :)
May I know why are you leaving the research life for good?
Thanks :)
Yeah, we laugh at the movies because we know how real life in the lab is done ;D
I am leaving research because I decided to become a motivational life changing coach. Instead of working on problems in the lab, I want to work on problems from real life and find solutions to them :D
That is a very noble reason. Good luck on your new career path!
Btw, your food posts are very good, could be collected and sold as an ebook or normal book. Those are some nice food resource for those on diet. :D
Thank you very much. That is very nice of you to say!
I would really love to do that if you think it can help some people.
Thanks for the suggestion and for your support.
Hugs with lots of love <3
If you need a kick up the arse (in a nice way) vis-a- vis, getting you business moving, let me know. ...happy to help...
Hey!
That is very nice of you to offer, especially that you don't believe in coaching business. I really appreciate it.
However, I still remember the business idea we agreed on a while ago for you. If you are still up for it, then I am up for your offer as well especially in getting advice from a veteran business person. ;D
I'm a nice person! lol
I have helped other people before just to help them out, and given pointers to guide them along... -who's product/service was not one I particularly believed in.
It's not a moral issue to give you pointers.
( I wouldn't help anyone in things I thought were damaging. I wouldn't promote the US democratic party for instance, or those companies involved in the industrial war complex .....)
The first pointer is - focus on your new business - 110% - no time for anything else right now.
If you do have spare time still - you are not listening to my first bit of advice..
I know of lots of people who have succeeded,-and failed - in starting up a business.
I do not know of one that succeeded that didn't involve total commitment to getting it off the ground.
Live, breath and sleep it...seriously.
(I'm sure there is a life coach lesson you have, that tells you something about committing to something 100%...? ).
Change is a good thing as you well know based on your previous posts!
I wish you the very best of luck and hope that your new endeavor works out to be happy and fulfilling. I'm sure you'll have plenty to blog about!
Thank you my dear @nesian101 for all your support, encouragement and kind words.
I am very happy to have met you and other amazing people on steemit. Your positivity and encouragement makes a big difference to my spirit :D
Hugs with lots of love <3
Congratulations on your new endeavor, I'm sure you will be great at being a life coach. Enjoy.
Thank you very much my dear @wonderwop for your sweet wishes and support :D
You look great my dear friend!
Are you going to miss that research life?
Thank you my dear for your sweet compliment :D<3
No, I don't think I will miss it. I am looking forward to move on with my life in a different and more positive direction
Wish me luck :D
Wish you all the best. You will succeed!

So, what will you do when you'll leave the cells all on their own (to take cer of their happiness)?
Hi dear,
Thank you for your interest
I am leaving research life because I decided to become a motivational life changing coach. Instead of working on problems with cells in the lab, I want to work on problems from real life with real people and try to help them find solutions to make their lives better :D
Good luck on your new journey.
