Go for it

An aspiring medical student was told by a respectable consultant surgeon - don't do medicine. There's no social life!
Whether or not this was a joke or a test of determination, I do not know.

I asked, what about a female wanting to do surgery?

He replies, much to my admiration and respect, "Its a boys' club. As much as 'they' try to say or make it equal. You gotta put more effort in, you got to tough it out sometimes. But go for it. If you want it, go for it."

He adds, "......But whatever it is, most importantly, don't ever let a boy change your mind."

*I heaved a silent sigh but also a straight smile*
