Big expectations huge disappointments

Last year, I was watching TV, to be more specific just changing channels. Until a NBA game draw my attention, The Miami Heat vs The Los Angeles Lakers. I'm not a sports guy but I can appreciate some games when they are played with passion, you know? Very quickly, I started to put my hopes in The Miami Heats, to be more accurate in Jimmy Butler, he was like all the time on the court giving his 100%, I don't really care about the NBA, I just care when someone tries to beat the odds and make the impossible totally possible.

The subsequent days

For two weeks I watched the NBA finals, hoping Jimmy Butler was capable of beating the Lakers' superiority, however, in the end, The Lakers were the new champion. I did not feel sad, this wasn't about Jimmy or Miami heats, it was about how I was feeling that day.

Looking at the mirror

I've been trying for almost 6 years to enter medical school. At the start, it was unlikely, I wasn't a nerd, all my grades were bad, and never put my efforts in the school. Another wasted case. I don't know if I beat my head on the wall, but one day I woke up and realized that I wanted to be a medical doctor. Since then, I have put myself on a journey to achieving this. In 2019 I tried for real, never spend so much time in front of books and I ended up with burnout. And I got in 2020 feeling like Miami Heat trying to defy LeBron James with hard work.

Another day, another dollar

This is not a bs motivation, not doing anything for your life is worse than being defeated by your enemies. I realized that watching Jimmy Butler, he almost couldn't stand up after the last game, he was so exhausted, just like me in 2019. Just try to avoid have a high expectation about something, do your job, and be patient.
