But surely you can be successful and happy in life if a PhD is not in your abilities.
Of course you can! A friend of mine earns just under £200k and has neither a masters nor a PhD. Yet another friend has a PhD (in music) and works as a teacher. They are very different people and the friend earning £200k wouldn't be able to work as a teacher and vice versa.
There is so much more to life than qualifications and the sooner you realise that, the happier you will be.0 -

I am going to try to be happy after my degree and get on with life.
I am going for a walk to see if I can feel better!!
