Motivation

 It has dawned upon me that the notion of practice was missing from my methods for mathematics, which became a full-blown disaster a year later. One must go beyond memorizing and practice them to be pragmatic! I trace this problem back to biology with Sister John Ann, when the division began to separate. It was also hidden during the newpaper route in Mountaintop and showed up subtlely  at Zollinger Harned. The jobs were drudgery, paid poorly, and were well below my intellectual abilities.

Could it be that the shortcut of memorization instead of practicing led to my lack of finishing what I start? I must explore the possibility. It also may have to do with the habit of passively reading over and over the same passages for comprehension.
