If you can get past the broken modal dialog (I had to use Reader view in Safari), and the inane image macros, and the listicle-style writing, this post is crammed with excellent advice for science PhD candidates in their 3rd year or beyond (much of it is applicable to postdocs as well). Discusses how to define a clear scientific question and maintain focus on it in the face of (sometimes subtle) forces that make both of these things difficult.
