hard proof

Visible to anyone in the world
Edited by Neil Anderson, Thursday, 27 Sep 2012, 22:07

I was toddling along, when, big wall—a proof I didn't 'get'.

Maths is hard [for me], I pretend that it isn't but it is. Too often I just charge through, I should stop and think, see that I don't understand, mash the symbols.

I have a feeling of of utter uselesness.

Does any of the above remind you of you and your subject?
