you’re about to begin one of the most challenging, exhausting, but TRANSFORMATIVE years of your career! above are the 5 things I wish someone told me before day one: 🌟 mistakes will happen— reframe them as a learning opportunity, not as a failure! remember, the purpose of residency is to learn and teach you how to troubleshoot anything—including your emotions—when you’re doing this on your own! 🌟 do something daily JUST for YOU. even if it’s small, protect that fire of yours! 🌟 don’t compare your journey to anyone else’s but your own—you’re growing at your own pace. 🌟 ask for help when you need it— NO ONE expects you to know everything! 🌟 eat breakfast before you go to work—yes, it’s basic, but you’ll thank me within a week when you realize things are often on fire as early as the second you walk through the door! #medlifetips #internyearready #futureMDs #residencylife #doctorintraining #whitecoatwisdom #medmentormoments
