I'm currently a college student. I have always been an overachieving student, always striving to do my best in the things I do.
Mainly to get into medical school, I'm a pre-med. I've been very diligent with my work so far but now I just feel empty, I don't find much fulfilment and satisfaction in my studies. Don't get me wrong, I didn't lose meaning in pursuing medicine, I still hold on to the dream of one day becoming a doctor and hoping to stay in public practice for as long as I live to help those that are really in need.
I think I've lost meaning in my studies, it has happened before, I've picked back up and regained my drive. However, right now I don't feel like it's coming back.
My major exams are coming up, ones that determine whether I get my long desired dreams get fulfilled or dies.
Please help me anons, it really means a lot to me.

Discipline obviously.
Passion will always fade so you just need to be in the habit of doing what needs to get done. Having come this far you already know how to pass exams, so it just comes to forcing yourself to study.
And I mean what else would you do?

Thanks anon, i really appreciate your help.
It doesn't get easier. The entire first 2 years of med school are worthless studying where you learn things that don't matter. Then the third year is meaningless unless you're on the rotation that actually interests you, and fourth year is just a waste of money. Not to mention intern year is just being a note bitch.
My point is there's like 5 years of not quite clinically relevant studying ahead of you. Learn to tough it out now in prep for the future
