Reply to comment by GeneralGom in [Discussion] I'm 23 with a lot of Fs on my college transcript and very little to show from the past 5 years... my goal is to be a doctor and I'm not sure I could be farther from achieving that goal. by richTING13
Can I ask, from a place of sincerity and with the desire to be helpful, what’s going on in your life?

Oh, no need to be of concern about me. I stopped comparing myself to others or dwell in my past long time ago, and I’m doing just fine now.
If there’s something to say about me relating to you, I once dreamed of becoming a doctor myself just around your age, but gave up on that dream because I thought it was too late for me since I already had a completely different major.
In retrospect, it wasn’t. I had plenty enough time to start again from the beginning and still achieve my dream.
Nowadays I work in a completly different area. Just wanted to let you know that you still have so much potential and opportunities to achieve your dream, or find another.

You have no idea what it means to hear words of encouragement. I think I’ve spent far too long living in the social media bubble which has convinced me that people will only always try to knock me down. It’s honestly makes me a bit emotional just to hear some words of encouragement, so thank you.

I’m so glad to hear. Good luck on your dream!
