It all began with failure
I failed an exam and it was entirely my fault
I picked myself up, retook the exam, and passed. But more importantly, I decided that something had to change.
I began to reevaluate everything, from how I studied to what I prioritized in life.
And somewhere in that search, I discovered a tool called Obsidian during my C2 Minor.
What started as a simple digital note-taking app became a space to think, reflect, and build myself.
From then on, I just bought a few exercise books and ended up saving some money.
And slowly, I started seeing the results.
My grades improved and I grew more during C2. And eventually, I passed my qualification exam.
Now, I carry one thing with me:
I don’t want anyone else to go through the same struggles I did.
If sharing my story or tools can help someone find their way, then it’s worth the try.

#MedhistoryMonday
🎉Prof. Richard Pankhurst: Unearthing Ethiopia's Medical Past 📜🔍
Richard Keir Pethick Pankhurst (1927-2017) wasn't a medical doctor himself, but his dedication to Ethiopian studies led him to make immense contributions to preserving and understanding the country's rich medical heritage. He was a British scholar, historian, and academic who spent a significant part of his life researching and documenting various aspects of Ethiopian history and culture, with a particular focus on its traditional medical practices.
Prof. Richard did :
⛳️ Extensive Research and Documentation to gather information about traditional Ethiopian medicine. He spent years collecting data on herbal remedies 🌿, surgical techniques 🔪 (some surprisingly advanced for their time😊), and beliefs about the causes and treatments of diseases.
⛳️Preservation of Knowledge
⛳️ Publications and Scholarship
⛳️ Insights into Medical Beliefs and Practices
⛳️ Highlighting the Sophistication of Traditional Medicine 💡
⛳️ Advocacy for the Recognition of Traditional Medicine 🌱 who inspired Generations 🌟
💥❤️His profound legacy will forever resonate in our memory ❤️💥
