    You vs you.
    I failed the first time. I was so afraid. So crippled by what ifs.
    Got into the room, did my first block and knew, right then and there that I couldn't do it. I gave up during my test. I was a nervous wreck.
    But I knew the material. I did the studying. I read the books.
    The monster wasn't on the page or in the computer. It was in my head the entire time.
    I have 12 days left until my second try. And I know in my heart that I will not fail. Because I have what it takes. I'm far better now. I know exactly what I'm doing. And so I will pass.
    Thank you for this Dr.Neil. You are an inspiration to us all.

      Create that "Shadow" and when that 'fear' tries to show itself during the test, self-talk it away. Fear was not invited to this party. AFTER you PASS, share your story, your mentality.

    You inspire me to do more, be more and serve more Dr.Neil. Thank you for being you and being vulnerable to share your childhood story with us here. For me you're that James Bond that you are talking about visualizing to be that cool, collective and calm person in the test center. Thank you for your relentless service to this community. I can't wait to be on the other side and talk about you in my success story!! Pure gratitude !!

    Today I passed step 1.
    I feel that one of the most valuable resource for this entire journey was your motivational videos.
    The way you uplifted me was something I now realise I desperately needed.
    Step 1 is no joke. It makes a man out of you.
    And I was always iffy on it. Didn't know that if I had what it took to pass it. One of my seniors commented to me that you need to watch some motivational videos. I never really took his advice seriously until I got nearer to my exams when I was studying for 16 hours/day consecutively for several days and a stretch and at the end you are just running on fumes basically.
    That is when you start exhausting your last emotional, psychological and mental reserves and you try to extract whatever will power you have to carry you across the finish line.
    That is when you need external motivation/ motivational videos to remind you of why you are doing this and why you started in the first place
    Stuff related to the steps is covered in many videos and in many places but the videos that I derived the greatest value from from your channel were/are the motivational videos.
    Hope you read this continue to motivate me and others and I have motivated many people to do good in life because of you.
    I just wanted to let you know that I have passed it forward

      OUTSTANDING!!! ENJOY THE MOMENT!! I appreciate your kind words. You put in the hard work and it is now paying off. After STEP 1, the process begins to 'become real' and very obtainable. Don't lose any momentum... START ATTACKING STEP 2... Thank you for the update. KEEP MOVING FORWARD!!

    Dr. Neil! I just wanted to let you know that your “simple black and white basic” videos have motivated me throughout my USMLE journey. They helped me with my step 1 exam and I am now going to give my step 2 exam in 2 days. Your presence means a lot to this IMG with minimal to no guidance in a foreign country! Please remember me in your prayers. It has been a rough journey but thank you for being a part of it! 🙏🏻

    Sir, You are an inspiration for me. I have my exam scheduled in February. I have a constant feeling that I am not prepared even though I have revised twice and some things even thrice. I am passing nbmes with 200-210s but I feel that I don't have what it takes. I have tried to keep myself motivated through self-help books, affirmations etc. but it sticks for a while and then I'm back at the same feeling again. How to overcome this feeling.? kindly guide me, Sir.

      Ask yourself where does the feeling truly come from... fear of being 'ridiculed', 'shamed' by others... Develop a plan and multiple ways to execute the plan... Even if I didn't get the score I wanted I had the attitude of "adapting" and then attacking in a new direction if needed towards the same goal.

    Dr. Neil do you recommend going for the 3 digit score or pass/ fail? My last NBMEs (29,30) scores were 253 and 251. 2 weeks out, but not feeling very confident and I am losing my motivation, feeling very burnt out.
