You start by making sure you have wrote the problem down correctly... even though most of the time you don't know what to do with it...
And when you first write it down it looks so complicated that you just want to quit. It has different Variables that are placed in it and there are so many different techniques in solving it... You just have the pleasure of finding the write one..
When you first start the process of solving it you realize that this might take forever to understand but you just want to try...
Through out the problem you add a couple things and subtract too, Multiply variables and Divide to make smaller variables... But when you look at the problem so far, its still looks just as scary as it was in the beginning.
Then Soon enough you find an answer... Something that makes sense, You Celebrate just a little because your finally done... but when you check your answer, Your spirits come crashing and your mood changes and you feel like giving up.
But someone comes over and tells you that you can do this... You should try again... Maybe start new...
So you try again... and again... and again, Until you stopped caring... and you realize that almost everyone around you has found the answer and your the only one left...
But for some stupid reason you try one more time... You look at the problem again... and realize since the beginning you have been writing it down wrong.
You see that you were adding things you shouldn't off, subtracted things you needed, multiplied variables that you needed, and you divided things that should of never become so simple.
But you try... and this time you make sure you start right... with the right problem. And you still feel better knowing that its a new problem to you. So you Add, Subtract, Multiply, and Divide... and you get an answer that is so Outrageous to everyone... but to you it makes sense. You simplify some things that you could live with out so that everyone is happy... and you take one more look in the book and find out that you have the right answer...
And you know that no matter what you cant tell anyone how you did it... that they have to find out of there own... because we all use different techniques. And since you finally got it... you look over to your friend and see that the whole time their doing the wrong thing... they even have the wrong problem... and you wonder how there not done because they started so much earlier then you... But you lean over anyway and say... Something to encourage them just like someone did to you...
So even though everyone gets the same problem not everyone gets the same answer...
And there will even be some who will never find an answer at all.
