So tip number one is basically a quote and it's actually one of my favorites Which says great things don't come out of comfort Essentially guys if you want to be at a place that you have not been You're going to have to do things that you haven't done if you want to become a better student You want to get better grades You're going to have to study at least differently if not more or more intensively you want to become a better clinician You're going to have to think and practice thinking outside of your comfort zone right now because what you're doing is not gonna be able to Get you the results that you want to get if you want to become a better communicator Which are patients you're going to have to enter that uncomfortable feeling ever so often where you're awkward you make mistakes That's how you get better. You know a great example is last year I started this YouTube channel and Not in my wildest dreams that I imagine being in front of a camera giving tips about med school And am I perfect and you know one year later? Absolutely not but these videos are much better than what they were a year ago I encourage you to watch my very first one because there was a lot going wrong in that one and it makes me cringe But I'm better now and that's the whole point So great things don't come out of comforts But if you want to do great things in 2019, you're going to have to be uncomfortable more than you were in 2018 So tip number two and this works really well for the students and my Viewers and subscribers that are interested in becoming a better student Maybe you have step one or the MCAT or step two later this year and you just want to do better So the tip is to remove the fluff There is so much that we do particularly when we study that doesn't give us results If anything is wasting your time or giving us poor Outcomes so evaluate everything you do whether that's studying how you interact with people You know whatever your goal is and ask yourself what am I doing that's not giving me results But it's causing me to waste time and effort So if that means that you're doing something for example, if you're reading the syllabus But you don't actually get anything out of reading the text Maybe you substitute us for something that does give you results Whatever it may be just be critical on everything you do remove the fluff because at the end of the year If not literally you're going to be figuratively a more lean individual and version of yourself things You're just gonna become much more efficient productive and that is something that I can speak to You know if I'm always evaluating what things I can take out and when I look at myself at the end of the year I know I'm a little bit of a better version of myself because I removed the fluff So tip number three and this is something that I give through a lot of my videos is to have the end in mind You know one of my favorite quotes is how are the person that I want to be do the things that I'm about to do So if you have a goal for the version of yourself You see at the end of 2019 ask yourself what that person would do and then you know basically reverse engineer it how Would they get there? What goals would they try to accomplish how strategically and specifically do they get to that point? And it just becomes a lot more clear if you imagine yourself as that person who's already accomplished it So have the end in mind it really works wonders versus just having a goal and you know blindly trying to get there So tip number four is a specific way to basically achieve all your goals it's called my one for one technique and There's a specific reason that I made this video at the end of January versus at the very start of 2019 because now The New Year's resolution motivational Kind of high is gone and you guys have to be real with yourself on whether you've actually stuck with those Resolutions that you've had the one for one technique is a very specific way Versus you know a New Year's resolution on how to accomplish your goals for the year So basically what it is is that the one for one technique represents an annual goal Quarter goals as well as monthly goals. So you have one big annual goal for whatever you may want to do So when you met school, you may be having a specific Score on step one if that's something you want to do you may have a personal annual goal the four Represents for quarterly goals. So you have one for spring one for summer one for fall and one for winter And it's something you just want to be able to do every three months These are kind of micro goals that you have yourself focus on versus something that takes 12 months Which is a little overwhelming and then finally you have monthly goals You have one thing that you want to be able to accomplish So a great example is when I make my blogs and I'm doing them the journey There is a goal at the end of every single month some of them are number of goals which is trying to get a specific month subscribers for the YouTube channel and some of Them are just outcome goals, you know try to send out X amount of emails Referring to blog posts that I've made and so I have to make those blog posts to send out the emails so one for one technique really works wonders because you are focused at a time a Shorter time frame versus 12 months. So try it out Let me know what you guys think but I really do think it'll help you transform where you're able to accomplish in 2019 So now guys I'm going to quickly transition into some of the goals that I have for the MD journey Kind of want to give a little bit of honesty Transparency on what I want to accomplish because that way you guys keep me accountable at the end of the year when I watch this video Let's see which ones I accomplished on which ones I didn't so the first one Then that's kind of a number of goal Most of these are is I want to be able to get this channel to 25,000 subscribers that goal is kind of arbitrary It's actually much higher than The channel is probably projected to get but I want to get there and so now I need a reverse Engineer how I'm going to arrange the channel what things I need to change to be able to get to those kinds of numbers currently as I'm making this video I'm about 1200 to 1100 subscribers So I'm really gonna have to 25x my outcomes and we'll see how far I get But I do have some plans for the YouTube channel and really just transforming both the quality as well as a frequency of content So hopefully you guys are excited tip number two is I really want to continue the ball of Creating different content and products on helping the specific audience And so last year I wrote three books and made two video courses into today Or at least this year the goal is to write two more books as well as to release at least two more courses And so I have in mind what those are going to be but we'll see if I'm able to accomplish them Especially now that residency is coming quickly down the line and I'm getting married So that's two things that really will kind of take away the amount of time I'm able to spend on an empty journey. Don't worry. I think I'm gonna be able to do it Finally the next thing is working on project X And so I'm not going to be very specific on what project X is But I'm going to give you a chance if you're interested on being a part of the creation of project X So at the comment in the description you can go ahead and see a link It basically adds you to a list of people that are interested and I'm going to just send you out Info about what project X is and then you are going to be able to help me craft kind of the final product So if you're interested on helping up the basically the newest and biggest Change the empty journey is going to make in 2019 that I encourage you to check out the link in the description below I'm gonna need your help and there is going to be a lot of benefits of being part of that group So if you think you have some time to just answer some emails and give me some feedback But I think we are going to work really well as a team So again if you're interested in project X which I plan on creating this year Then go ahead and check out the link in the description But basically guys that is the end of this video on how to just crush it in 2019 Remember the four goals, which is you have to get out of your comfort zone You need to have the end in mind You need to understand Basically to remove the fluff and finally use the one for one technique to arrange your goals in a very specific way And I promise you you're going to become a different version of yourself than you were in 2018 If you did enjoy this video make sure you give a like subscribe to the channel and join the community and To help me get to my 25,000 Subscriber goal if this video helped you and if you have been a subscriber for a while just share This video with one person.
