 here are three amazing things that happen if you do avoid that volunteer amnesia. Number one is that you're going to be happy and you're going to be likely happier than your colleagues because both of you guys will go through the same experiences, but if things are good, you're going to make them even better by reflecting on them. On the flip side, your colleague is just going to perseverate on things not going well, build up anxiety, but never really come up with a solution in the future when that happens again, it likely will. Number two is that through reflection, you know what you want. Again, when I sit on the other side of an interview table, I often can tell that person with good confidence, this is what I want for internal medicine. This is what I want for cardiology. These are the experiences that have told me that and I don't have to do more convincing than just speak authentically about those experiences. Again, it shows off through your personal statements, your interviews, that's what you want. You don't want to be an inauthentic or feel like a cookie cutter applicant. And the best way to do that is reflect. That way you're convincing without trying to convince yourself that all of that you're saying is true. Number three, you just tend to be more relaxed.
