Abstract

Performing postgraduate studies and doing a doctoral research including the public defence constitute a multi-dimensional and immemorial process that one can justly enjoy after traversing that road. I will describe my own process by adapting Creativity Manager Mertzi Bergman’s (2009) thoughts. The phases are 1) From need to realization, 2) Impossible can turn into possible, 3) Preparing for the new, 4) From getting inspired to movement and action, 5) The new relationship with problems, and 6) Dream came true.
