I just realized my problem as a scholar. Sometimes, I think about two (or more!) different things that are connected in one instant. They could be connected, one could cause another, etc — but they form one simple image in my mind. It is, probably, very useful for fast thinking processes. I'm overclocked, I know. But it is ruinous for my academical writing.

For instance, Shabtai Tsvi has his religion which is radically different as a personal religion addressed to the whole nation (usually we separate these things: either it is a personal revelation, or addressed to the public), and radically problematic as a Jewish religion that undoes Jewish religion within the textual canon of Judaism. In my head they form a new concept of Sabbatian religion. And I start to write a long problematic and profoundly unfathomable sentence that has to reflect my perception of such an entangled complexity.

It is a mistake. Two different sentences, no, no! Two different paragraphs must be written about this. That is how I can explicate my concept.

Great. A year and a half in one of the best academies in the world and I begin to understand one simple rule: one thought per sentence. No, even better: one thought per paragraph.
