The document outlines common challenges faced by researchers, emphasizing the importance of focusing on one’s area of interest when selecting a research topic. It highlights additional issues such as ignorance of research methodology, poor writing skills, procrastination, and lack of motivation, which can hinder progress. To overcome these obstacles, researchers are encouraged to engage with literature, choose open-ended topics, plan effectively, and seek guidance from supervisors.

4. Finding Solutions to the Main Problems Faced by a
Researcher
According to Wernher Von Braun (a German philosopher),
“Research is what I’m doing when I don’t know what I’m
doing”.

5. As Neil Armstrong said
"Research is creating new
knowledge."
Let new researchers bloom and
create new knowledge.

6. Research means re-searching a fact that already
exists.
While doing a research you have to find out
something new from the already existing facts.
It is a structured inquiry to create a new
knowledge.
Researchers at present encounter many problems
while doing their research in a unstructured
manner.

7. Many researchers when they reach a midpoint in their
research think about quitting research because they don’t
understand what they are doing.
Many questions like
why am I doing this?
what is the benefit in doing
this? ,
Is it a research?
And many more questions like this pop up in their mind

8. The first problem faced in a research is
- To find a topic-
Many of the students fail in the very first step
because rather than focusing on their area of
interest they hear opinions from different people.
At last they get confused and they stop doing there
research.
A student who pursues to do research first should
identify his area of interest and should start
reading.

9. The more you read more you get ideas regarding the
topic.
After completing the reading phase discuss with your
guide and select a topic.
While selecting a topic always select an open end topic –
A topic which has multiple perspectives. The benefit of
taking an open end topic is that you can develop your
research from any angle.
If you get saturated in the middle of your research
you can switch on to the next perspective. Hence
always opting an open end topic is preferred while
doing research

10. The second problem faced by the students
- is that they are ignorant about research
methodology-
The third problem faced by the students
- The third problem faced by students in doing
their research is poor writing skills
The fourth problem faced by the students
- The fourth problem a researcher face is the habit
of procrastination- Research
is a burden if you do not plan it well, hence make a plan and enjoy doing research

11. The fifth problem faced by the students
- is lack of motivation in doing the research work
If you do not like your topic or you are doing your
research to earn a degree the whole research
process will be boring for you. There are so many
students who drop out of their research because of
their lack of interest and motivation.
Supervisors and teachers should motivate their
students in their journey of research.
Communicate with your supervisor and seek his
guidance in every step.
