Hey what's going on guys how to DM regarding failing the boards now I'm going to read to you

the name's going to stay anonymous but I'm going to read to you the message and then I'm going to give you advice because I feel like a lot of people are going through this not just this one person.

However, this one person does feel like they are alone.

So the message says I'm reaching out to you because I recently found out

that I didn't pass the pants.

I feel ashamed, disappointed, and I realize that I'm not the greatest test taker,

but perform much better clinically. The hardest part of it

all is feeling like you gave everything you had to prepare and still coming up

short. The feeling of seeing all your classmates post on social media that they passed while you sit and shame is the weirdest feeling and I never wish that upon anyone.

So very quickly, a couple of things here.

A couple of things that I want to get across for those of you who are in a similar situation

because I feel like many of you are.

And we often feel alone because of those that post on social media are the people that are passing.

Those that post are the ones that are accomplished.

You will hardly ever see somebody post about a failure, an obstacle, a setback because that's something that we choose as a human as humans.

We choose not to share with the world because we often feel like we're alone.

We feel embarrassed like this

person said. Now for me to say that I've never failed is it would be a lie. If

anyone has ever told you that they've done everything perfectly, that's a lie.

The only way that can happen is if you never challenge yourself, if you never go outside your

comfort zone.

Otherwise, if you do, you're going to fail.
