as a doctor... your future self will thank you. being a physician has been my greatest regret. from the outside its a glorified existence but doing it is soul crushing. burnout is real, suicide ideation is real. don't do it. there are easier and less damaging ways to achieve your goals whether thats social prestige, wealth or working in medicine.
as a motivator your goals will change over time. you should figure out what without the title. for instance if a job lets say ceo makes 10 million dollars a year. would you take the stress and crazy work hours if that role made 40k? if the answer is no then you really don't want to be a ceo you want money. so then the question is how do you make that money.
through a lot of trial and error kf those questions you'll find what you really want.
it might take time and experience. i thought i wanted to be a doctor until i became one. dont feel bad exploring
