Hey guys! I would really really really appreciate if all the aspiring-med students in this forum could give me a few online medicine-related extracurricular ideas. I'm in india and my search for research/ volunteering/ extracurricular opportunities has been quite limited. I would love to know of online oportunities/ oppportunities in India/ your experiences with extracurriculars in medicine so far. thanks a bunch!!

Some days I’m all fired up, ready to crush my goals, and other days…... not so much. I’m starting to realize that motivation isn’t always going to show up so maybe it’s more about building a habit? Like, even on the worst days just doing something to keep the momentum going. What do you guys do when you’re totally unmotivated? Any tricks for pushing through, or do you just force it and hope for the best? Could definitely use some ideas to make this whole staying-on-track thing a bit easier!

Ever had that moment where you're so absorbed in what you're doing that you lose track of time? That’s total focus. It’s not just about sitting still or working hard; it's about being all in, mentally and physically. Every part of your mind is tuned into just one thing, almost like the world fades out. Getting to that point isn’t easy. I’m finding that it takes practice to ignore distractions and build up concentration. Some people do it with routines or by working in short, intense bursts (ever heard of the Pomodoro Technique?). Others say it helps to visualize their goal first. For me, it's still a work in progress. What does focus look like for you? If you have any tricks for blocking out everything else, I’d love to hear them!
