How do i resist temptation?

Question

I'm a college student going into the medical field. I've finally decided that for the next 2 years (however long i'm going to be in school), i've got to sacrifice my social life. I don't go to little things on the weekends anymore because personally, i tend to get distracted easily (and i KNOW my limits). I'm naturally a fun person (i know how to have fun 'til it gets the best of me), "playful", etc...I can't just temporarily have fun on weekends (parties, drinking) cuz i know that's gonna get in my way in the long run. It's hard because I like doing those things and friends are tempting and giving me pressure. Friday and Saturday nights are meant to "have fun" and take a break - but with my hectic schedule, it's hard for me to switch modes and party - esp. since i'm soo concentrated on school. I'm not innocent- I know once i'm done with school, that's when i'll DEFINITELY have my fun - but no one gets it - am i doing the right thing? how do i resist these pressures and temptations?

Answer 1

You are on the right path. You must concetrate to your studies to become a known Medical professional. You can resist pressure by ignoring it & concentrating to your Goal tobe achieved.

Answer 2

If you wish to fulfill your dreams you must keep your mind to task. I know how hard that is. It took 20 years of study to become Ordained in my order and another 4 years to get my Covenant. It is no easy task. If you want to have it you must do what it takes.
I missed the fun of parties and drinking with the guys, we wont go into the dating thing though.

When people want you to break away for fun and challenge you to do so, Stay honest and strong. And most importantly stay honest to yourself and have faith in yourself. you can succeed,

Answer 3

Everybody needs some fun. Go out one night a week and dance or something. You'll be less stressed, and it'll probably be easier to get to work. Life is too short to live for tomorrow only.
