As medical students, we have a second chance like all other students, like all human beings. If we fail an exam, we'll have a resit, a second chance to pass it, to do it better. We are imperfect, because we're humans, we make mistakes all the time, sometimes we are not concentrated enough, or we're lazy and not motivated. Because of that we, the medical students, the human beings, are cursed to make mistakes, to do wrong, to fail.
But the supreme reason of that is exactly the second chance. Failing and being not concentrated is built in the human nature because we all have the "undo" option. If we had only one attempt, without a right to retry, to redo, we would be more concentrated and successful.
The medical doctors don't enjoy the privilege to fail and have a second try. Each mistake costs a lot, because the patient could pay with his life for it. The physician doesn't have an "undo-button" for his faults and a hearty "sorry" doesn't do it better. So the medical students should learn there's no retry, no second chance, the venture is just one; each mistake could be harmful and hazardous for many people, could be with far-reaching consequences and there's no forgiveness for it! But to work unmistakably is not enough to be a good doctor, we should try to do better, to be better, better doctors, better people. To right the wrong, to make away with fault, to turn evil into good, illness and disorder into health and vitality; to manage much better each time, without mistakes, that's the key of perfection, the key of being a great physician.
