I'm 20 years old, studying Biology & Pre-Med at Old Dominion University in Norfolk, I tutor others online in math, & I am an EMT & volunteer in the Virginia Beach area.  I am currently going through a lot of life changes right now & am beginning to re-evaluate my life & where I want to be in the future.  I am not sure if I belong in college or not, or if Biology is the wrong major for me.  My ultimate goal is to become a trauma surgeon, but I am having a really difficult time keeping motivated in my undergraduate years, especially when none of my classes pertain to anything medical.

How do you keep motivated in order to achieve your goals?

I agree that writing down your goals can be helpful to keep your focus. But, I don't know what question you're actually asking. Honestly, when you think about it... when you truly wanted something.... did you need anyone or anything to help you stay motivated? Of course not! When you really want something it's like a fire inside you that no one can stop.

 

I think a good thing to look at is... what do you truly want? If you're just trying to stay motivated for this course and are having a hard time you can talk to people with similar goals. Another thing is think about what you're trying to accomplish. This is... just a tool after all... it's up to you to take action.
