Personal Speech: Why I Want To Become The Best Doctor

Improved Essays
First, as long as you try your absolute best, that is all anyone can ask from you - even from yourself. Secondly, do not be so afraid of failure that you do not try your absolute best in the first place. I will not get through life and become the person I want to be, let alone do the things I want to do, without taking some risks. Third, no one is perfect not even you, so when you fall down don’t stay down - readjust, regroup, and try again. You will not be able to save the world on the first try. I am strong, determined, ambitious, humble, and loving. I put others before myself and make sure I help anyone and everyone I can. That will help me to become the best doctor I can be. Lastly, you can do whatever you want as long as you don’t give …show more content…
You will graduate from Penn State with your bachelors. You will get into a medical school that you will fall in love with, even if you don’t know which one that is yet. You will then graduate with the honor of having doctor before your name. You will do whatever you want with your career from there. You might own your own practice or you might be the head doctor of an institution. You will share your love for animals and teach people that animals can save lives as well - by having a small bunny farm and using them as therapy animals. You will become the doctor that you dream about. Maybe you will even go to other parts of the world and help people you have not dreamt about yet. You will save people, you will touch more lives than you will know about, and it will not be easy, but at least you will go to bed every night knowing that you got to help someone that day. Your career will be a strong part of your life, but you will always put your family first. You will find love and marry the man you love unconditionally. And who knows, maybe you will find yourself saving the world with him right next to your …show more content…
You will love your family and you will love your job. But you will also remember that the only way you can save the world is by taking care of yourself along the way. You will work hard and make a lot of money, but you will love harder than anything else you do. You will make sure to revitalize your soul when the horrors of the job get a little too much. You will continue to paint and draw, to make crafts and finish projects. You will continue to read and grow your imagination so that you can tackle the world’s problems in ways unthought of yet. You will also continue to find ways to volunteer and give back to your community. You will take time to love yourself as much as you love your family and patients. As a family, we will take time off and travel to some of the beautiful places on the planet, and not just see the bad places. But most importantly I will learn to love myself, learn to breathe and relax, and to simply learn that I am only human – and that I should give myself the benefit of doubt as much as I give it to complete

    The wonders of medicine may seem strange and disturbing if viewed at the surface level, but if really thought about, medicine is amazing and beautiful. I appreciate the idea of taking something that is not working, such as a patient’s body, and fixing it for the better.

Taking on the responsibilities of being a doctor excites me for my hopeful future within the medical field, despite the burdens that will most definitely follow. Becoming a doctor would be a wise decision for me because I am truly passionate about the world of medicine.…
