Define your research question
Forming a good question is often the most difficult part of the planning process. This is because the exact language of the question frames the rest of the project. Most researchers do this step repeatedly as they change their question in light of previous research and other constraints.

- It should be feasible within your resource constraints, such as time and money.
- It should lead to new and distinctive insights.
