Why am I Here

Do you ever do something without really knowing why? You have reasons you tell yourself, reasons that sound good and that justify actions to family, but when it gets down to it, the reality is you just don’t know. Well that’s what I’m doing here. I don’t know.

I know I want a way to hold myself accountable. For being healthy, physically and mentally, for continuing to improve each day, to stop myself from being stagnant. Is there I reason I feel the need to do this in a semi public forum? (I say semi because I don’t plan to share this site and I doubt anyone will accidently run into it). I don’t know. I feel like sending this into the interwebs will somehow make it more likely to hold me accountable, even if I know no one is reading it. Because I know they could. Anyway, I suppose that’s what I’m doing here.

New year, new me? Not quite, haha. But I would say new year, new incentive to focus up, recharge, reconfigure my goals and find new ways to work towards them. I believe forward progress is key to feeling fulfilled and making sure you are living your best life. That’s what I want.

So that’s why I am here. Hopefully I’ll post something every day. I know I won’t. But a goal is a good thing, and maybe, if I can do better than last year, better than yesterday, then by January 2020 I’ll be at the next level, excited once again for striving, hustling, advancing to that next level once again.

If you are reading this, Hi. And thanks for being here.

I’m a 4th year surgery resident, which means I finally see the light at the end of the tunnel! I’ve always craved constant improvement in my life. That’s what led me to college, and medical school, and surgery residency. Now that my residency journey is almost over I find a desire for improvement in all those areas of my life I’ve been neglecting for all these years! I plan to do all I can to figure out this adulting thing at the age of 31 and document my successess and failures along the way.
