Algebra

I am having a me night... I will admit, I am no good at Algebra and the simple fact makes me angry out of hurt, out of despair, out of self doubt and out of sadness. I have tried to learn Algebra yet the topic is increasingly difficult for me and it does have the ability to bring me so down I will cry... I am having a good cry tonight. I wish I was great at algebra in all honesty, I wish it came naturally but I doubt it will. I want to reach out to all those others who have extreme difficulty with algebra, you are by all means never alone. I hear you and I share this inability to excel at algebra. In our lives we will find that some things bring us down, an inability to productively do a subject is common. I will hear you out if you need to talk about this topic, ask and I will give you my email. I know it can be depressing and hard when a topic does not come easy. For me it stands in the way of my goals and it will take time to finish specific courses of this subject in order to be what I am considering, which is extremely stressful for me. Something I will pray for and I will pray for those of you out there with troubles in life like this. Lets give it to God because God has a wonderful plan. My tips on the matter are:

  • Not looking at it with such despair as I have been looking at it and if you are then as you have been looking at it. You are not at fault for not understanding the topic you struggle with.
  • Think positively, find some positive in this matter, there is good and know that with every step you take you have supporters in your life, keep them close, Gods loving you, friends who you can talk to about this topic, family.
  • Look for the friends who offer you help with the topics you struggle with, there will be some in every batch, not those who do not offer to help, yet understand people might be busy and some will not know how to help, others will also not be great at the topic. 
  • Look for helping places, classes to help you catch up with where you should be.
  • Look for tutoring.
  • Find books which explain the topic.
  • Look online for websites which help.
  • Find videos which explain.
  • Pray, and ask others to pray.
  • Ask how others learned, ask for tips.
There will be ways of getting through this, I promise, I myself have to see this too. Currently I have my phone out and tissue, crying tends to help when we are down, I feel a bit relieved about things and a bit uplifted yet I believe tomorrow I am going to continue bringing myself back up, gonna pray too. You can do this and so can I.
