Math stress
Thursday, February 7th, 2008If you’re like me, and sometimes start pulling your hair out with frustration on a math problem, simply think back to all the other times you started pulling your hair out with frustration on a math problem…the frustration may turn to a chuckle. Or it may turn into a trip to the off license, either is better than a bald scalp.
Also, when that light bulb pings on and the problem falls into place, all that frustration was vented on something that appears painfully obvious, a missing piece of a collection of painfully obvious pieces…why else would it prompt ‘of course!’ followed by ‘why didn’t I see that before!’
