Imagine this…
As a kid you grew up knowing you had to be a doctor. Generations and generations of your mother’s family were doctors. You didn’t have a choice. Now as a 35 year old, you are at home after an exhausting day of work. You’re so tired that when you’re brushing your teeth you begin to fall asleep and lean forwards, almost hitting your head on the mirror, but you catch yourself…sort of. Your hand falls through the mirror, and as you crawl through to investigate you realize it’s led you to the day you applied to Harvard´s medical program. Do you decide to change to a less exhausting career, or go back through the mirror and go to bed?
