Earlier this month, i started comparing myself with other people’s progress and it made me really insecure. I felt so down afterwards and it made me feel like my efforts were not enough.
This day, i finally decided to jot down all my feelings in a journal and reflect on things i needed to do in order for me to prevent being so harsh with my self.
I realized that comparing myself with other people is just so bad for my mental health and it’s not in any way helping with my progress as a med student and as a person. I know for myself that I cannot prevent myself from being jealous with other people’s lives (let’s be real here shall we) as it’s part of how we’re built as humans.
Sooo, in order for me to be at peace, i unfollowed and muted some of the people that’s making me feel so insecure. (Huhu im so sorry, im the problem here and not those people who I unfollowed)
I listed all my monthly achievements (since march) and failures then reflected on the things that i can improve on myself based on what I previously wrote.
I just wish this works and this makes me stop comparing myself for the next few months. I just can’t help being insecure sometimes:(((

Hi!
I love your blog. I actually wanted your opinion on the bluetooth keyboard. I have a laptop already, but I was debating to if a keyboard would be beneficial for my iPad or if I should strictly keep it for handwritten notes?
Hey!✨️
Thank you🥰💖
So, I really like the logitech Bluetooth keyboard, but thb: I don't really use it that often.
So it's beneficial if you type a lot on your iPad, but definitely not a necessity if you are using your laptop for typing more and use your ipad mostly for handwritten notes.
Also, if you want to look at typed notes on your iPad: just use Google Docs for example. You can type your notes on your laptop and thanks to the cloud synchronisation you can repeat/read your notes on your iPad! (It's completely free, you only need to create a google acc)
I hope my answer is helpful in any way!
Have a nice day💖
I promise: I will never give up until I achieve my goals!💖
