During particularly frustrating weeks, when you lose points for stupid reasons or you’re bored to tears reading through power points or you’re up way too god damn late studying for your fourth test of the week and you have no idea if you’re even cut out to practice physical therapy, think of this.
1. Every brilliant professor you’ve had started out EXACTLY where you are. Not everyone comes out of the womb understanding roll and glide kinematics.
2. You have only just started your life in pt. give yourself a break for tough concepts.
3. Just because your classmate is a wiz at neuro doesn’t mean you have to be too.
4. Look at how much you’ve learned in the last year. Or the last semester. Or hell, in the last week. You are learning SO MUCH. Much more than you aren’t retaining.
5. You gotta start somewhere. You don’t just get handed a doctorate degree for nothing.
Anywho, carry on, pt nerds. Finish the week strong. That is all.
