tryina find the balance between ‘if you want it bad enough you’ll get it’ and ‘what’s meant to be will be’

[dxmedstudent]

I saw this explained more succintly on another post, but it was a little simplistic. My take is that basically:

The things that are up to you are the things you need to work hard for. You can’t pass an exam you didn’t prepare for. You shouldn’t expect a relationship you won’t invest any effort or care in to last. You shouldn’t expect to get jobs you won’t work towards or apply seriously for. This means that to do well, you need to try to do your best, as much as reasonably possible.

But at the same time, we all need to recognise that some elements are outside our control. For example, we can’t be responsible for the other half of a relationship (partner, friend, family, colleague etc). If they aren’t putting in their bit, or don’t want things to work, you can’t compensate for that. And you just can’t predict what the future will bring; people can realise they are incompatible, or change and drift apart. So whilst we can do what we can, this is where an element of ‘fate’ comes in.

Even competitive things like say, university applications or getting jobs and working up the ranks have an element of this. You can work very, very hard and not get in; and that’s not your fault. Recognising that part of it is out of your control can be scary, but it can help you to accept that if things do not work out, it wasn’t your fault.

Today I discovered this writer’s tactic to face her fear of rejection and failure, and it’s honestly very inspiring?! This kinda rewired my brain and I feel everyone should read and think about it.

// 14/05/18: *What’s in Tayla’s library?*

Here are a few autobiographies that I’m loving (of course they’re medical)! The top two follow the lives of neurosurgeons: one as he reflects on his career before retirement, and the other as he battles lung cancer). The bottom two follow the lives of a neuroscientist whose brain tumours caused her to reflect on her mental health experiences, and a forensic counsellor who has seen just about everything in his field of work 👩🏻‍⚕️💉

More books to come! Please comment your suggestions below

[12.07.18] 25/100 latest spread + two of my favourite dogs (one lives w me, try to guess who 🙈) i’ve been trying to be more present and practise my dancing since it’s been a while i’ve taken a real class. i’m actually excited but scared tbh most of the students are already professional and i’ve just started this year, but the support my family & friends gave me motivates me so much to persue this new path :)

in other news, i might have enter into the top third in my class?? i’ve been checking my marks lately so that means i might as well have a 30% discount in tuition (here it works like a scholarship, so i’m really excited for that ^^)

100 Days of Productivity x 3 - Day 49/100 July 11, 2018

I built a PC computer today! I’m beyond excited! I’ve been saving up and doing research to build my own PC for around two years now - and I finally did it! (With the help of my experienced friends and my encouraging parents, of course). The feeling of achievement of a goal, whether it be long term or short term, is one of the most rewarding feelings one can experience. If you’re lacking motivation, keep in mind what it is you are working for - what it is you’re trying to achieve. Even though people may consider it strange or small, after achieving this PC build I feel so much more motivated to put my all into my school work and studies. Let’s work hard to reach that aspiration!
