Hi,
I've been watching Leo's videos for about a year now, getting all the "Aha" moments but actually doing nothing to improve my life. Finally, I signed up in the forum after watching the How To Be A Strategic Mother****** video.
I'm 26, female, repeatedly postponing my medical school exams for two years now. I have been in med school for 8 years (it should've only been only 6; I should've been graduated two years ago). I also gained a significant amount of weight (BMI: 33), lost my social life, sitting home all day to basically "catch up" studying in order not to postpone my graduation further. Where I live, doctors spend 3 more years after graduation until they finally get a specialty. So in a nutshell, my academic, personal, and social life are a mess. And they've been a mess for over 2 years.
I think big of myself everyday. I want to graduate, look good, pursue further medical education in the US, UK or Australia, be in a relationship, reconnect socially with people. On the other hand, what I actually do is pitying myself, postponing, eating, not exercising, making excuses. It's like I'm expecting to magically do better one day.
I've been seeing or dealing with no more than 6 people and they are all family. I go out once a week on average. I feel undersocialized, and maybe this is why I signed up to this community.
My question is: Which one of the messes I'm in, must be fixed first? Which one should I "strategically" act upon, so that a chain reaction occurs and things start getting better for me?
I will really appreciate it if you give me advice based on your knowledge / experience.
Thanks.
