The Effect of People

I'm one of those people who easily gets affected by everything. I try hard to stay strong and resist change but its inevitable, I keep on evolving. I envy those who are so sure of themselves, who are so proud of who they are that they remain as they are whatever comes. Maybe its a search for purpose, for meaning... But is there purpose? Is there really a meaning to this life?

Math - A Foreign Language

Why is math such a difficult subject for most students? I believe its because mathematics is like a foreign language.

Difficulty comes from not understanding.

I had had difficulty in math since I was young but due to the need to know and master the subject, I was able to learn. Understanding math requires CDC (Courage, Determination, Commitment). You need to be ready to face difficulties, persevere and be self-motivated.

Learning math is like building a relationship. You need to know the basic things (yet important) about math. Always spend time on math. Remember important details. You have to make time. And if ever you come to the point of giving up…try again. If you just can’t continue further…seek help.

Math is a wonderful experience…don’t let your fear blind you of its beauty.
