Reflection/Progression

I wanted to share what is happening at the moment... although I am not too sure how to express it!

Here goes.

So, my proposal and all related work is handed in, ostensibly 'completing' unit 2,  However, I am having almost retrospective lightbulb moments (or are they progressive?) about my chosen topic and actually musing that my research may end up taking me somewhere other than I thought.

Then comes the anxiety that this may not be allowed, followed by rationalisation which tells me that what my brain is processing now is related to my topic... and could in fact enhance it....

Then I cogitate further, and pick up a book which is not related but related to my topic and it all starts again...

If I can analyse this logically, I do think that my understanding of my research topic is broader than it was, which it should be, and this is all ok.. but then I ponder that maybe I should have got to here before I did, but I didn't, so what can I do?

Is this just me?
