Where Success Goes

Success does not necessarily go to the person who has the most elaborate plan. Success goes to the person who takes a plan and puts it into action.

Success does not usually go to the person who can take a few noisy, impressive strides. Success goes more often to the person who steadily puts one foot in front of the other.

Success doesn't automatically go to the person who starts out with the most resources. Success goes to the person who makes the best use of whatever is available.

Success goes not to the person who makes the biggest promises. Success goes to the person who reliably follows through on promises.

Today is your opportunity to put your plans into action. Today is filled with moments in which you can put one foot in front of the other and move steadily forward.

Today you have the chance to follow through on the things you have promised, and to make the most of the good things that are available to you. Use today wisely, and success is yours.

Have a very successful day friends...nodnod

Value added

Anything worth accomplishing is going to take some long, difficult and sustained effort to reach. Yet even though the goal may be a long way off, the benefits of working toward that goal begin to be yours immediately.

For the value of accomplishment is in the accomplishing. The reward is not so much in what you obtain as in the person you become in the process of obtaining it.

No matter how difficult the journey may be, it makes all the difference in the world when that journey is leading to a destination you have chosen. By setting your sights upon where you intend to be and by committing yourself to following that path, you immediately add value to life.

The commitment, the discipline, the focus and the effort are indeed their own rewards. And they begin to be yours the moment you decide to begin.

Though at first you may wish you could reach the goal without having to work your way past the challenges, you'll soon realize that such a thing would be worthless. For it is precisely the value you put into any accomplishment that gives it value to you.

Make the most of every opportunity to give your best effort to life. And you'll find yourself surrounded by real, lasting value.

Outside the walls

You are capable of many wonderful things that you do not even know about. Decide to start discovering some of them.

Outside the walls of your imagined limitations, there is a whole world waiting to be experienced. Allow yourself to venture into it.

There is so very much you can do when you stop being so consumed with what you can't do. There are so many opportunities and possibilities to explore when you stop worrying about your shortcomings and disappointments.

Let go of the small, limiting thoughts that revolve only around your ego. Make room for the big, expansive thoughts that enable you to experience life's magnificent abundance.

There is so very much you can do, so very much you can be, so very much you can give. Choose to open yourself to the wealth of possibilities.

Step outside the walls of your old assumptions. And take life to a whole new level.

-- Ralph Marston http://greatday.com/

Hope we all can do, much more than what we think we can do..have a very productive day friends nod

Thank u female doc ny for your prayers! I need them the most than ever now!

what I did Yseterday April 26th Wednesday?

Started with Section II Physio..in between got irritated with Nernest equation, again kind of worrying in between, can I finish this task at this time, well said my prayers, seeing my thoughts, I just told to myself " concentrate one at a time, try to learn and enjoy, beling pregnant as well as a Doctor, do not keep any goals either, just keep doing how much ever u can, otherwise u get tensed, if u r tensed then, nothing will move forward, and what u studied I doubt you remember well after, so what is the point worrying future, just concentrate now, the page , the sentence you are reading and understand the concepts..on and on" I kept on saying myself, I think that worked

I finished my Section II, with questions and explanations. thern Did FA extra 10 pages, same time reviewed the earlier read pages!

Today Section III, god willing and few pages of FA, that should be good, in between few questions!

The power of Enjoyment

Enjoyment adds power and effectiveness to whatever you're doing. When you're enjoying life, you're functioning at your highest level.
But what if you must do something that you don't enjoy? Choose to enjoy yourself anyway.


Enjoyment depends more on your attitude than on your surroundings. To enjoy yourself, you don't need anything other than the will to do so.
After all, the outer details of life are not nearly the whole picture. Your inner thoughts are what ultimately control whether or not you're enjoying yourself.

So choose to bring the power of enjoyment to all areas of your life. You'll be more creative, more pleasant to be around, more positive and more resourceful when you're enjoying life.

Wherever you may find yourself, whatever you may be doing, find some aspect of it to value and appreciate and enjoy. And enjoy what a powerful positive difference it can make.

-- Ralph Marston http://greatday.com/motivate/index.html

Have a very great day friends...nodnod

Hodgking,

Hey Buddy,

I see you go at steady state with your physio notes, I think Physio is extremely cool cool doctor dunn was a great professor, so humble and always ready to answer any question, even the qs from some guy that was like a pain in the ass, jeje, just a joke, but really this guy was an anal retentant during the lectures lol.

About the nernst thing, just be sure to grab the concept, like why K+ does efflux and Na+ would do influx if conductance increases, understanding all that stuff will make a piece of cake to get cold electrolytes influence on the accion potential of any cell. the formula indeed is not important, just grab the concept buddy. Keep on going pal, you r doing good!


  #178

Thank u aisha, yes certainly it makes u feel very feeble..also I left my ambitious targets, same time glad if I can do few chapters a day!

Yeah 4mymd..thank u dear, how r u doing? Yes, while listening to lectures,Dr.Dunn said the same too, he is really have a unvelievable patience and consistency, as he teaches again and again..

I will do that 4mymd..thanks for ur suggestion, otherwise also I wonder whether I feel comfortable with any questions after..I am really getting scared of doing Questions now..as early I start my next reading its better I jump in to Q bank, before I forget what I am reading just now..right?

what I did yesterday Thursday April 27th?

FA, did extra 12 pages, with revision of few pages..I find thsi technique of revising high yield stuffs everyday works better to memorize or even makes things familiar in FA pages,how much I will know only after solving Q Bnak..I am just following my friend advice..Yesterday she gave her kaplan simulated test..and score 74 average..isnt it great?

Physio Section III..almost done..but have to solve questions, same time from Physio Q Bank..may be whole day today will take some good time..

Very busy day today..Friday husband being home..next week its gonno may friends shocked

This is

This is a day that is like no other. This is a moment in which you can make great things happen.
This is a world full of challenge and opportunity. This is a life that's overflowing with possibilities.

This is your chance to make a real, positive difference. This is the time that is yours to fully live.

This is reality, and it is filled with promise. This is when you can begin to make your most treasured dreams real.

This is the place where your choices have brought you. This is your first step toward the best you can imagine.

This moment, this world, this life that you're in can be whatever you decide to make of it. This is your reminder to make it great.
