I always thought I was too “dumb” to understand math. During my school years, it was evident to me that for some kids math was easy, and for others like myself: painfully difficult.我一直以为自己太“笨”,不懂数学。在我上学的时候,我很明显地发现,对于一些孩子来说,数学很容易,而对于像我这样的其他人来说,数学却非常困难。
This belief shadowed me for years, a constant reminder that while believe I am smart… I’m not THAT smart.这种信念多年来一直困扰着我,它不断提醒我,虽然我相信自己很聪明……但我并不那么聪明。
Recently, after 150 days immersed in learning math, I had a stark realization.最近,在沉浸学习数学 150 天之后,我有了一个鲜明的认识。
The struggle wasn’t because I wasn’t capable, but rather, I was simply missing a shit-ton of pre-requisite knowledge.这场斗争并不是因为我没有能力,而是因为我只是缺少大量的先决知识。
It’s like trying to defeat a Elden Ring boss… at level 1.这就像试图在 1 级击败《Elden Ring》的 Boss。
It’s like walking into a movie halfway through—you can’t understand the plot because you missed the beginning.这就像走进一部电影,你无法理解情节,因为你错过了开头。
The same goes for learning complex subjects like math, CS, whatever.学习数学、计算机科学等复杂科目也是如此。
The gap in comprehension wasn’t due to a lack of ability but rather a gap in prerequisite knowledge.领悟上的差距并不是因为能力不足,而是因为先决知识的差距。
So here’s a gentle reminder: You’re not dumb—you just might not have all the prerequisites yet.所以这里温馨提醒一下:你并不傻——你只是可能还没有具备所有先决条件。

Building from the Ground Up从头开始构建

Realizing this, I decided to rebuild my math skills from the ground up. I revisited the basics I had glossed over or misunderstood in the past.意识到这一点,我决定从头开始重建我的数学技能。我重新审视了过去被我掩盖或误解的基础知识。
Going further back in my material, picking better learning methods and practicing like hell.进一步回顾我的材料,选择更好的学习方法并疯狂练习。
This process was slow, often humbling, but it was necessary. Each foundational concept I mastered laid the groundwork for more complex theories and problems.这个过程很缓慢,而且常常让人感到谦卑,但这是必要的。我掌握的每个基本概念都为更复杂的理论和问题奠定了基础。

Have I turned THAT smart yet?我已经变得那么聪明了吗?

Hell no. In fact, I’m still pretty dumb. But I’m slowly getting there.天哪,不。其实我还是很笨的。但我正在慢慢到达那里。
