Life Lessons, Pass or Fail

If you were to study for a math test would you be focusing on every single number that created every math problem possible, or would you focus on understanding the formula that can give you the answer every time you apply it to the math problem that’s presented?  

In math it’s not the memorization of All the numbers used to make up the answer that is desired to be learned, it’s the understanding of the formula that that we seek, because once we learn that formula, we understand how to come up with the right answer each and every time.

When reading a book, then taking a test on that book, it’s not each and every word written that told the story that’s tested, it’s the understanding of the plot, defined as the events that makes up the story, predominantly as they relate to one another, in a pattern, in succession, through cause and effect, or by coincidence.

Forget every word and remember the lesson, Stop focusing on the numbers and learn the formula that gives you the answer so can accomplish the problem that’s presented.  Life Lessons can be some of the most difficult things to learn, make it easier on yourself, learn to study wisely and listen to your Teacher. ~ Carlene Altom 4-22-12
