how the fuck do doctors work 60hr+ work weeks for 40 years (including college + residency) while being the happiest people on the planet?
>is there hypnosis or something to train myself to have this work ethic?
I don't want to be a medical doctor, I want to be high a high achiever btw.

doctors have some of the highest suicide rates of all professions
that being said: the high achievement mindset is probably just either there or not. imho all that "dude just self-improve"-stuff is just cope on a massive scale and wishful thinking.
chad doesn't think about self-improvement ever, he was just born with his attitude.
i'm not trying to be demotivational, but i've never seen self-improvement actually make a huge (!) difference. people tend to stay more or less the same, and using huge amounts of willpower to change your natural tendencies can only ever be a short-term solution
> happiest
Doctors have huge depression, drug abuse/alcoholism, obesity and suicide rates.
They're about as unhappy as a career goes.
looks like a tranner waiting to happen
dude just safex!
its the other way around. Only motivated, hard working people become doctors. Its one of the few professions where hard work actually pays off big time. You are guaranteed upper middle class if you complete medschool.
Why then there is always a demand for more doctors/dentists/vets? not many of those kind of pure hardworking people (medschool is expensive, yes, but taking a debt for it is a no brainer)
I was in the Navy as a corpsman and worked with a lot of young doctors. Smart as fuck people but so willing to work for as long as it takes. None of that groaning my fellow enlisted did when we had to stay late. Also they gamed the system right. If you're willing to commit a few years as a medical officer, they will completely pay off your school debt.
As said earlier, many physicians are miserable. The job is not very fun or interesting and sometimes rarely even rewarding. They can’t really “practice” medicine anymore and have been reduced basically to keyboard warriors who just hear symptoms from patient, give medicine. Insurance companies are actively undermining physicians and it’s obvious we are approaching an effort to neuter their profession by the federal government. I can’t imagine a worse field to go into as a new college grad than medicine right now. There will be physician shortages within the next decade or more because it’s just not worth the debt, professional liability, stress, personal risk, and time to become a physician nowadays.
huge sudden shifts are very rare while long term changes are less noticeable in other people as we’re naturally focused on ourselves. I can’t prove you wrong because the only evidence I have is anectodal but looking at myself 3-4 years back I know for sure self improvement is not a meme for people who put in the work. we have access to more useful knowledge and can self-reflect better than any humans before us and we somehow find that a bad thing
maybe your definition of "huge change" is different from mine. what i was trying to say is that people, as far as i can tell, do not become chads - they either have "it" or they don't.
overcoming is a conscious process, while the mindset OP wants is an underlying phenomenon present in the subconsciousness. chads are chads even when spontaneous or not paying attention, because the winner attitude is molded into the very definition of what they are.
you can turn yourself from a slob into an organized person or learn to approach people as an introvert (because these are all processes that can be planned consciously), but you do not magically generate that kind of "winning" attitude that makes you react like a chad spontaneously.
