15 things I tell myself when I don't want to work/study

1. You are very lucky and privileged to have access to almost unlimited knowledge and you should appreciate that. 2. Be one of those rare people who step over their insecurities and succeed. 3. Only 5 minutes. Only today. (Repeat it 5 minutes later and every day). 4. You will know what to do as soon as you start. Ideas never appear from inactivity. 5. Make yourself proud. 6. One hour every day doesn’t feel much but it’s 365 hours a year. You can’t not succeed after so much work. 7. It’s not supposed to be easy. Nothing good is easy. 8. If you had a child to look after, you’d make them study because you want them to accomplish something. Don’t you love yourself? 9. “Everything you want is on the other side of fear” George Adair 10. Every mistake increases our chance to make progress. 11. If you give up now, you’ll have to return to this later anyway but from the very beginning. 12. Let the process be your result. 13. Every moment you thought your fears would suppress you has become the time you made it. 14. Maybe you think you can never find something to use your skills and mindset for. But if you continue investing in what matters to you, it will find its way out there. 15. I allow you to think globally. You have a right to the boldest dream.

what do u mean "From what I know, getting into med school/law school/similar programs is actually harder for students who got their undergrad in pre-med/pre-law/pre-that field." that makes no sense? u get into a med school by taking pre med classes in undergrad?

I totally understand your confusion. The idea that pre-med isn’t the best thing to major in to get into med school flies in the face of logic/conventional wisdom.First off, I’d like to correct myself by saying that (for example) getting into med school with a pre-med undergrad isn’t harder from what I understand, but it’s not necessarily any better than majoring in something else. There’s two major reasons for this.One, med schools/other grad programs want to be able to claim diversity in their population when it comes to their students undergrad majors. They want to be able to point at their grad students and say “Look! We have students from every field of undergrad studies!”Two, schools care a lot more about how you do as a student rather than the classes you take. They want hard working dedicated students, which there are plenty of outside of pre-med/pre-law/whatever else.I hope that made sense! If you have more questions you can keep asking.

Scans of the inside covers of Strang’s Calculus, which you can legally-download for free here from the MIT website. This is my all-time favorite math or physics textbook. Scanned it so I could cut and paste it into my new sketchbook, wanna try and make a ~cool artistic~ reference poster out of it, ‘cuz I’ve been real into that idea since I took notes about rings for the algebra midterm on a big piece of watercolor paper.
