A page from the periodic table book I’m currently reading (bismuth crystals my beloved <3) and, you guessed it, some of my flashcards!

I constantly feel intimidated by math. Like only some people get it and others just don't. I can't make connections and lose hope quickly. I am pursuing a combination of statistics, economics and math so math^3. How can one romanticize sitting in the same place and wrestling with difficult abstract math concepts without giving up? I am just penning this to find some point that triggers action in me.

Math is practice, practice and just when you think you're done practicing, you need to practice some more. I believe the issue is that in public schooling resources are very limited and teachers are undoubtedly overworked. This is a major issue with any subject but I believe particularly with math because, depending on which part of the subject you're currently engaging, it's the most abstract thing you will have to deal with. If you don't get it, well the resources simply aren't there for your teacher to take time with you and help you.

In reality math is nothing like that. As I have quoted before: “If you are receptive and humble, mathematics will lead you by the hand.” (Paul Dirac). I stand by this and will until my last day. Math requires an open mind and time, it does not like to be rushed and it will not stand for abuse. If you treat it kindly and patiently you will be rewarded. I understand it can be annoying/painful to have to take longer to grasp with content, just as it is annoying to practice the same kind of problem a thousand times but it's the way. You need to allow yourself to be wrong, to slam your head against the wall because you don't know how to proceed with problems. All of it is deeply painful, but remain open and calm and it will pay of.

When it comes to romanticizing mathematics I don't believe there is one right way. I love the rush I feel when I finally know the next step in a problem I've been stuck on for a day already. I feel butterflies in my stomach when I go outside and watch the water oscillate, when I look at bridges and try to figure out what parabola they describe. Small things in real life can always be reduced to math, and when you're out on a walk enjoying the weather it's a nice thing to focus your thoughts on. I love standing up, looking down at my desk which is filled with papers all over the place. Some filled with notes, others completely scratched out. To look down and tangibly see all the work I have done in the past few hours. Perhaps all of this applies to you, perhaps none of it applies. At the very least I hope you have some ideas now.
