The Road Half Taken - Answer the WHY Questions most asked

When I was interviewed for new jobs and encountered with people after I resigned,  I noticed that most of them were curious about my decision. They couldn’t believe it, and some even think I might have made the wrong decision. All I can say is, you are not in my shoes. Hence I don’t think other people have the right to say whether or not I made the wrong decision. These are some of the questions frequently asked, and these are my answers to you. Why quit being a doctor? Being a doctor is not my dream, it was my parents’. During my time, when you have good SPM result, people automatically think of the professional career such as doctor, lawyer, or engineer. My family falls into that mentality, and I have taken the responsibility as being the eldest.  I had to quit my enrolment at a private university under a good scholarship, and pursued my medical degree as soon as I got the offer from JPA. It was not an easy path. I did try to drop out many times, but I continued studied anyway
