High School Student [Adventure]

Right now, you’re en route to Medical School…and you already know this is the wrong decision. Maybe not wrong for everyone else, but definitely wrong for you.

The problem is that you feel trapped.

Trapped by the expectations of others, trapped by years of indoctrination/brainwashing in school, and even trapped by your own brilliance.

You’re smart enough to do this, so why not just get it done, get it over with, and then get round to doing what you really want.

That’s the lie I believed when I was around 10 years old: First, become a Doctor, and then you can do whatever you want.

This is not true. This is a trap to keep you from doing what’s in your heart right now.

The blog posts below will hopefully help you find what you need to chart a path from where you to where you need to be. And if you’ve got any questions or thoughts to share, please post them in the comments below.
