I am constantly struggling with this, so I really needed this article now:

6 Small Things You Can Do When You Lack Discipline"

I also think this is being hard because I haven't found a cookie to put on the end of the string. I need to study each day.... so I can do more work later? So I don't panic during residency applications? That's not a cookie, that's something to scare myself with and ultimately feel guilty about all the time. I need at least a little bit of positive reinforcement.

I watched some House this morning and that helped give some inspiration. It also felt good because more than in the past I was able to make and think through my own differential, and every once in a while anticipate a result the show put out, even if it was a red herring. Ignoring this test, at least I am feeling like I'm closer to where I need to be in mindset.

Must stop distracting myself and finding ways to avoid this. Must go study.

studying, med
