Section 12 due on September 1

1. I’m worried about being able to correctly set up these proofs. They’re definitely getting more complicated with the compound statements. I’m sure I just need some good practice in setting them up. It might even be helpful to just practice setting up proofs and not necessarily proving them. (Although, of course I’m going to need to know how to do both) I just think if I have a very clear map then It’s easier to figure it out. I guess I just realized that that’s what we’ve been doing in class the last couple of times. Writing the first and last lines, setting out a clear destination, and then just filling in the gaps. I haven’t really tried that strategy on the homework (mostly ‘cause I’m just stubborn or lazy I guess haha) but I think I’ll start now.

2. I realized that I like math, when I can understand it. I don't like math when I feel frustrated by it. When I don't know how I'm making an error or I don't understand a concept. And the best way to understand and overcome frustration really is spending enough time and getting enough practice.
