8.3 How do I keep my interest in medicine
going?
Be aware of your surroundings. Appreciate
all the medical development that you see and look forward to be part of it.
Look around you and see your
seniors who have passed their exams and watch how they progress. Talk to your
seniors who are doing well in class and get inspiration from their success. Be
careful when choosing your friends. Avoid those who are always grumbling and
have negative attitudes towards studies.
Visualise yourself in five years
to come. Whatever you do today will have an impact on your life later. Imagine
the kind of person and doctor you would like to be within that time. Think of
the impact of your work on someone’s life. You will be helping someone to
improve his or her life and the job satisfaction that comes with it should keep
your interest in medicine going.
Try to watch movies or TV programmers that you have medical themes such as ER and Chicago Hope. Even though it may not be the optimum theme but there are some medical facts and messages that will keep you interested in medicine.
I am only one; but still I am one. I cannot do everything, but still I
can do something. Therefore, I will not refuse to do the something that I can
do.
Helen Keller.
