    Great vid, doc! My brother bought the book you're talking about and said it's great. I've heard from many other people that it's life changing. I'd also like to add that a good reward for situations like this is writing down what our end goal is and WHY we are trying to accomplish the specific goal. Then reading it everyday right before we start studying (or doing whatever other activity) we are trying to do is a great way to add this routine into our "cue." This can work by looking at the reminder in the form of a screensaver on our smartphones, on a sticky note we stick onto a wall in our room or desk, or on our laptops. When we're in the middle of trying to follow a routine and get unmotivated it's always a great reminder to remember why we started in the first place and how good it will feel when we reach our end goal. Thanks for tips in the video, they were helpful! God bless!

    Don't listen to those other people. You do what you want. Not everyone can or wants to be a doctor and you shouldn't let people persuade you to do anything. Becoming a doctor is a huge career choice and path. It's not as easy as just "go further and finish it, who cares!". Obviously people who say that are doing it for the money and not for the passion otherwise they wouldn't make it out to be like it's easy and everyone should just do it instead of being a nurse. Nurses are great and very appreciated. Why spend way more time and money on becoming a doctor if that's not your passion? good luck! :)

    Seriously don't listen to people asking why you don't do med school instead...being a nurse and being a doctor are extremely different jobs. It's about the equivalent of asking why you're not going to be a marine biologist instead...they're just different things, and you should go with whatever you feel the most called to. Plus, some of the best people I know are nurses :)

    Saying this from my burner account because of the sensitive content. However, I use walking my dog as my cue and after a 10-12 hour study day I reward myself by indulging in Mary Jane. I know it's not sustainable up to clinicals but for now it's working. I think this way to do things is very useful, it ALMOST makes me excited to study.

First thing people look at in a video is the time duration of the video... anything more than 3 minutes is avoided by many due to lack of time in their busy schedule.
