lets see how much we can achieve in a limited time if we stay focussed , disciplined and have unconquerable faith in God.... so daily updates with all the positivity is wat i expect to see in ur journal.
Ok my daily updates is expected to be seen here:
Today was my 1st day ---couldn't just started blindly on a schedule---had to find my own way..so today was working on that which was good but I spent so much time on this forum.
so decided to visit here only once per day to update my progress.

Hi
I shudnt reply as per ur instructions but ,
I took the liberty to reply cos u called me ur friend.
I said its not going to be easy and not possibe to sit and concentrate for 15 hrs daily...
Do ur best everday...
Dont spend even one minute being tense that u are nt able to cope up with the syllabus u allotted for one day... U hav to be patient and clever.....Sometimes u dont make it but soemtimes u do....and once u start completing the sched portion for the day.... u will never lose.
Just think..... Think like u r a genius...
Say it to urself .
So now......What wil u do to come out of this situation ?
Answers are already in ur mind....
Just dont feel tense and forget all expectations
and no regrets.....All achievers do is to make the best of what is availble to them and go achieve it with their chin up.
All the best , my friend..

people say love as if this is the last day of your life,i applied the same to my studies..... there were times when i really got bogged down by certain topics but i didn't rest until i thought i got them well....
i did it thouroughly and tried to understand each and everything i read in this time.in fact i read everything as if i will never get another chance to read....

Ok after many days of wondering how to do this..What plan is the best...coming up wt a plan...getting excited ...then not managing cas not being disciplined nor focused ...and then crying and crying why?? why again i lost my day:
I hit a point that hv to change something...after reading SOS's experience, I realized that this cycle of shifting bet different plans or books and wasting a few days because of it has happened to others as well...so I got over my lost days...now decided to come to library from now till my day...there is so much distractions at home that can't avoid...
anyway any plan can be good as long as u stick to it...after this long, I know your best friend is yr mind...I mean a clear mind....a focused mind on success and job in hand ...if u don't hv that then nobody can help u....so I'm working on this..to clear my mind of any possible distracting thought....
hv to start again and finish this ever challenging task soon....
Thank u all my dear friends...esp thank u Kalyan for always being there...

Hi.
U can track my 12 day schedule in my journal from today onwards.
Yes da...
Daily 15 hours -50 min per hour - 10 min break per hour = MY DAILY STUDY PLAN
I see it as One day is equal to 2 days of study... I nap for 45 min to 90 min in between that 15 hr schedule somewhere after 8 hrs study... makes me fresh for the next 7 hrs of study left...
And Sorry for the misconceptions mentioned... not intended to be offensive at all. Forget it... It doesnt mean anything ( I am talking abt the line u typed in ur msg ).
Yeah i will keep ur point in mind... I have edited my msgs to remove those points/issues.
All the best with ur study .
And again Sorry and Thanks....

Hia girldoc:
How r u? wll visit yr journal to see how u r doing ...
I'm ok...I guess...been spending so much time lately on planning my last 4 weeks till d day...so had to postpone again....I think a life coach would have suited me better than this profession...but still i love medicine...
Anyway as someone said USMLE is like a rollercoaster...like life itself...
Thanks for visiting and wish u all the success wt yr prep
