Failure = Opportunity
⏩ What is your biggest failure?
Mine? Failing a Clinical Practice exam twice and being told I wasn't going to graduate with an MPharm
All I heard was: "You are not good enough"
But what it really meant was: "It is not your cup of tea, try something else"
Today, I treat this failure as one of my greatest successes.

"It's not just about becoming a Medical Science Liaison (MSL). What's really important is to have a purpose and I insist on that. I'm working as an MSL, because I really want to bring Innovation to patients. And this is the force that is driving me every morning when I wake up and go to work. It's not only a job title. It is something that you really have inside of you. So I would recommend you to take any opportunity that you have, even if it's not directly related to the role you are seeking. You have to have an open mind and learn what the position is trying to teach you. Then you will have a lot of lessons that will help you transition into the role that you want."
