FINALLY A BREAK. Today is the first day of my very first vacation in Residency. Its
been 6 months of growth and managing patients. I started residency in 7/1/17
and it has been go go go. I haven’t had the time to sit down and analyze what I
will be doing, what my plans will be for this new year, and what look at what I
accomplished last year. I’m going to take a look at my resolutions from last
year and see how things panned out. Dun dun dun dun dun.
“In 2017,
my goal is to match into a good residency program, to give a speech in front of
a high school students, make more youtube videos, compete in the World
championship of public speaking, and give you readers more value by blogging
about the standardized exams that Medical students and Residents face.”
I did match into a great residency program! Yay! I did
compete in the world championship of public speaking however I did not make it
to the finally stages. I blogged decently until I started residency and it
happened far and in between. Out of the minimum of 13 books that I was supposed
to read – because I read about 3 books and am literally past the half way point
of 3 other books. As for giving a speech in front of large crowds that has not
happened yet.
This year I will carry over the things that I was not able
to accomplish plus add a few more. For the things I was not able to accomplish
I will set the bar a little lower so that I can accomplish them. The idea being
so long as I can get the ball rolling and stay consistent I will more likely to
follow through. This way of thinking has served me well through out my years.
Enough rambling…
My goals for this year are
1 )
HIT 400’s in the ITE exam. I got a 370 and that
was with no studying.
2) Read 6 books. I tried to read more than a book a
year, however, that didn’t pan out in 2017 because of my busy schedule. 6 books
a year is not too bad and it will be more than the 3 books I read last year.
3)
Volunteer work. I want to volunteer. I did look
for different sites where I can volunteer maybe in a soup kitchen but all these
places required you to fill out all these forms. I put it off till next tiem
and the next time never came. I will try to get on it this time.
4)
Giving speeches to the youth. I would like to
motivate and inspire young minds, to held set them up for a successful life in
regards economics/finances/attaining their goals. I’m still trying to figure
out how I will get this accomplished
5)
Blog at between 6 -12 x this year. This bar is
really low. Looool. It’ll definitely be cathartic but hopefully serve some
value to whoever reads this.
6) Buy an apartment
6) Buy an apartment
Will review again in 3 months – March.
