One of the things I wish I did in life was studying medicine and surgery. I would have made a really great surgeon. I know I would have because I am not one to back down from a challenge. The only issue I've always had was that I could easily be prone to mistakes. It was a really big flaw for me growing up, silly mistakes and I’ve caused great harm. I've always known this about myself, my mum was always talking about it and it made me become too careful and that is when I even make more mistakes. I remember one time I casually said I would like to be a doctor, and my mum casually replied, I hope you won't forget scissors in someone's stomach.
It struck a cord in me that made me refrain from studying something that would make my mistakes very obvious. But now that I think about it, these are things that could be worked on. At least I am learning from my work mistakes, and even my life mistakes. It's not easy, but these are things a person can learn and become really good at. One of the things I've learned so far is that mistakes can be avoided and also mistakes are a necessary part of life. There are lessons one might never learn in life unless they have made mistakes in it.
I used to be always afraid to make mistakes but when I stopped being afraid, I discovered that the fear of making mistakes was what made me make even more mistakes. If I had known then what I know now, perhaps I would have gone for medicine and surgery instead, but looking at the things I've gone through in life, especially during my school year, perhaps it was best I studied the course I studied because Medicine and surgery would have required my full concentration which I really couldn't give to my studies at that time because I was working 4 jobs and schooling at the same time.
