47 till the Summit

Greetings old friend,

I have returned once more. Much has happened in the past months, and although they may not be recorded in writing, they will be remembered in eternity. It is nearing the 12 month mark from when I started my journey, and I will admit this has been the longest school year of my life. Now is not the time to recap though. Finish strong.

I have 47 days to climb a mountain higher than any that I've ever attempted. May God give me the strength to carry through upon this goal. For the next month or so, I will dedicate every waking moment of my life into this.  UpToDate and Amboss articles at every open opportunity. Anki for each second of downtime. Divine Intervention will grace these ears for the next month. And then... the questions. Practice, practice, practice questions! I will do them all - until there are none left to do. Every question bank, every practice test. I will scour the earth until there is none left.

Not a drop of dopamine will be wasted on anything outside of these afore mentioned faculties. No more music, just lectures. No more scrolling, just Anki. No more news, just articles. My joy is attained through the green check marks from these questions. My relief is the heavy iron in the gym.

I know this is extreme, but my time is fleeting and my mountain high. I will  optimize my recovery to maintain maximal intensity. 8 hours of sleep, cold showers, and clean nourishment. 

Lets get it.

That's happened to me

 I've never wanted something so bad in this life. It is almost as if I am manic. I've lost my mind... "I've lost my mind doing this doing this sht. Like Vincent van Gogh. He dedicated his life to his art and lost his mind in the process. That's happened to me. But f--k it."   -The Notorious      Every second of everyday is dedicated towards this one goal. I train and study every waking second until my mind is mush. Until every fiber in my being is screaming for me to stop. Until the people around me beg me to tone it back- then I keep going. We are more capable than we believe, and now, I finally get a glimpse of it. I've squandered many years with half-assed effort, but no more. The goal is all I think about now. It wakes me up every morning and keeps me up every night. Everything else in life on hold. Let's fucking get it.

Legends of the Fall

Greetings to the future, It has been a while old friend. My hiatus has finally come to an end, for I have found my way again. All is well in the world. I have found the path that must be walked. A reason for the struggle. An end to the road. A why. I have found it once more. I know what I want in this life. This dream now keeps me up at night and has me leaping out of bed before the sunrise. When we wander aimlessly, no amount of motivation can carry us through the storm. A ship with no direction will never reach the port.  I will do everything it takes to get what is mine. I will do great things. I promise you. Remember this day. 1 year to make it happen. WE RE BACK BABY! LETS GET IT "What we do in this life echoes in eternity." -Gladiator II
