I've waited a little while to post this, so please overlook the length. I hope my willingness to share helps someone out there staring into the abyss, unsure of the outcome.


Never take the opportunities before you, or the people that support you for granted. When you invest in others, the universe rewards you tenfold. In 2010, I was right where you are – sitting at home on my computer, feeling like my great ambition was lost. I came across this thread, and shortly after, outlined my war path. Now, in 2012, I've accomplished this paradigm shift. So, it is possible? Yes, I'm living proof. Improbable maybe? Sure. But the human spirit is resilient, and at times, even indomitable, so you should like your odds. Are you ready to fight your way through a ****-storm? I'll see you on the other side. Go.

HOLY COW.Just reading that paragraph gave me CHILLS. I'm going to be an undergrad senior and I have been losing hope. My grades have been average but the one class that has made me depressed is my orgo grade. I got a D the first time and then a C- the second time. I dropped Orgo 2 because I did not want an F to ruin my already bad gpa 🙁 As i sit here and read all these post, i get more motivation from post like yours. All of you inspire me. I've gone though a hard time and so has my family. I also went through an emotionally abusive relationship which led to my ex-bf stalking me and almost hitting me in public. Its also hard when you don't really have friends that are in the same major. They will never understand the inner struggle. Becoming a doctor is my dream and I dont want anything else. Reading those last sentences makes me realize that I WILL fight and that i will do anything to win the fight. Thank you EVERYONE!!!!
