I want to be a doctor for so long, but I think I don't have the grades and intelligence to get accepted in med school.
Now, I'm thinking about all the medical professions out there, yet I can't find any medical jobs that actually make me happy. I know people advise me to look deeper, but I can't imagine myself doing anything else beside being a doctor. Worse, I hear so many comments about how becoming a doctor is a waste of time and money because the tough career outweighs the benefits. PLus, the malpractice and insurance make things worse..
What should I do? I'm confused..I don't know what to do with my life anymore...please help...I thought I knew what I would do with my life when I graduated from highschool..becoming a doctor was my ambition..
I have my own reason for becoming a doctor, but I'm afraid there are many sacrifices..I'm lost and confused..I dont know what to do with my life..
I'm 19 yrs old.
??!!
Take it a day at a time. It works.

Follow your dream...you will regret it if you don't. If, in the end, you decide that becoming a doctor is not for you, then you can pursue something else. But you MUST find that out for yourself. Like they say, "You'll never know unless you try." I think it's great that you have a passion...most people don't even have that! Also, if you don't already practice yoga, you should give it a try. Restorative yoga, practised regularly, helps keep you centered, focused and confident. Good luck!

Hey Peace Love,
Go for your Dream! You could have different problems, but paying for mal-practice insurance will still leave you taking home more money than most people. But Money should not be the drive - your dream is what matters. Study harder than the one that is smarter, dig deeper than the others. Failed doctors have great options in Medical fields, failure to try at all will always be in your mind. Go for it!

I think you should not be asking others what to do with your life. Only you can truly know what you want to do and what will make you happy. If you want to be a doctor I say go for it. Nothing worth getting in life is easy. Do not be afraid - fear and anxiety are the cause for many diseases. There is no need to be afraid either you make it or you don't. If you want to be a doctor that badly I don't think you will fail - there are many ways to help people besides being a doctor. If you do have trouble grade wise you may could go into counseling or something. Don't be afraid to try all sorts of Fields that may not exactly be medical. You may find another way to help people that is full filling to you. You are only 19 - I think you got some time here - so lighten up on yourself. By the way life is full of decisions and sacrifices so get used to that idea - lol.

don't worry about what others think!!!! do what you want for yourself. strive for your goals for your reasons, and screw everyone else who wants you to do it their way.if being a Dr does it for you, go for it. All medicine does not have to be done in corporate america

"Interest" follows "action."
Decide on an action...the interest will soon appear.
What should you do with your life?
You're already "doing" it.
I recommend learning to play the guitar...
It's the most rewarding thing I have ever done for myself...and it continues to pay off for me to this day, 25 years later.
Creating music has no negative consequences...
Except for waking up the neighbors...
But they weren't happy in their sleep, anyway...
Rock on...

Don't try to carry the huge log, cut it up, take a chip or two at a time. Fix your dream into your subconscious, Accept your dream as a command from God. Then let it go and begin one step at a time, one day at a time. The mind is not for thinking, the mind is for receiving thought. Each morning ask God, What would you have me do today, dedicate each day to serving God. You can accomplish great things, but remember it is The Spirit of God within that causes all our action to bear fruit.

Take an accredited scholastic aptitude test. It should give you a pretty good idea of what your strengths and weaknesses are.

First of all, dont base your career choices soley in the annual pay. You just need to keep searching. You will find something you love to do. Most importantly dont stress about it. Worrying wont make it better. Just do what you feel is right.
