What I fear....

Sometimes I get this thought..that it is the fear to under-perform that bothers me and limits me at times, by which i do not mean fear to under-perform in others' eyes (That really doesn't bother me so much) ..but my own..

I fear that I may just fail to effectuate a task with 'that' level of perfection...Perfection is a very relative term I feel.. varies from person to person..Perfection is basically achieving the standards you've set for yourself..which obviously can never be same for two individuals..

And I've been fighting this fear like hell...Complicated!!??!! I've been trying not to think of results prior to doing something..

Well, I believe in doing whatever I do with perfection..not that I achieve it always..but I can say I do aim at it..whether I get it or not (though I believe forces in universe ensure that you get that something you really 'want') and I easily get annoyed when I come across people who actually start off a task with full zest and zeal but later get disinterested and do the same task half-heartedly...
My MESSAGE TO 'EM:::Either put your mind and soul into it or don't do it in first place

But then I feel...Who am I to judge people like that??
Ok..I'm virgo..which actually is an epitome for "the perfectionist"...So what??!!??

    U said-I believe forces in universe ensure dt u get that something u really want

    that is what is left in the world

    :-D Thanks for your comment....
    See when you set out a goal for yourself...you have taken the first step towards achieving your goal..then you channel your energy in that direction..and IT IS YOU who is going to ensure that the forces in universe are in your favour..forces of any kind..explained and unexplained...be it help from a friend as well...

    Thanks :D
    Nah, haven't read her book!
    You are right in saying that perfection is just to be approached! One's growth lies in that very process of perseverance..

The Clinical side!

Running about in the reeky wards is finally doing some good! It was all so thrilling when I, as a medico, for the first time percussed an oversized chronically diseased liver, palpated a visible apex beat, auscultated a stenotic valve and observed those toes fanning out just on tracing a curvy stroke. Boy! Did I just I ellicit a Babinski! ( :D :D :D :D And my heart was pounding with joy! ). All this in a week! Saw my first Bell's, the rare cerebellopontine angle tumor and a few days back, the facies of a six - year 'mucopolysaccharidotic' kid.Everything still vivid in my head! Just wish I get to see an asterixis now! Experience here with me the joy of discovering an AS murmur over heart of an eighty-year old! :P Beating like it would just come out! Made my day! And now, having written this, I wonder, if I really am that painfully enthusiastic medical student ! Well, even if I am, I like it this way! ;)
