I feel for you. Of course, that doesn't actually help anything.

Not knowing, really, anything about you or the root of your lack of commitment, let me give you some solicited advice from someone a bit older with a different perspective on things.

VERY VERY few people have a "calling" in life. We tend to like what we are good at and normally we have to work at being good at anything. Being in your 3rd year, you have one more year of school and at least a couple of years in residency. That may seem like an eternity but it will go very quickly and, believe it or not, you will be a very different person after completion of your training then you are now.

You have come this far, give it your all and finish what you started. You will have no regrets.

Good Luck,

Steve
