I started to do "at least" one math problem per day in 2019 after being inspired by the book called Atomic Habit by James Clear. This has changed my life. Previously, for more 20 years, I felt terrible that I had lost my math skills since I left college. I didn't know how to get my math skill back. With solving "at least one problem" a day, a curiosity is created and magnified but no more than seven problems. I really like do one problem a day because it doesn't take too much of my time. Some days when I am not in the mood, I do one problem. When I enjoy solving, I can do up to seven problems. It depends how busy my day with other things. Ever since 2019 doing at least one problem a day have made me wanting flip/read whole math book I have been working on because I was curious and i have "I am looking for a challenge" attitude/mood. Over the time I read the same book multiple times which have made me comfortable with it. I salute you, the math sorcerer.

@r.b.ratieta6111 Год назад

That's the thing about Math. Once you "get it" and learn the concept correctly, suddenly everything related to that concept comes naturally. I had a friend who never really learned long division back in 3rd Grade in a way that made sense to him, so he ALWAYS struggled with math and couldn't get past Pre-Algebra. Once I showed him the method for doing "short division" long after we graduated High School, it suddenly clicked and division made sense to him. Then he got "mad-sad" that no one ever explained it to him that way. I told him if he ever wanted to be able to do most simple math in his head, to memorize the classic times tables from 1 to 12. I doubt he's gotten around to it, but he is happy that he can divide most things accurately in his head, now. EDIT: Point being, he was perfectly capable of doing it, he just needed to understand it in a way that made sense to him.

@ZaksLab Год назад

Calculus 1 was the first math class that *really* made sense to me. There aren't that many ideas, and the results all flow from those few ideas. That's when I started building that mesh of logically sound math understanding piece by piece, and it all became natural. I think there's a healing process that has to happen to get over the awful way math is taught in elementary and secondary education. It is not a list of recipes to memorize and a list of familiar problems to solve on exams. It's a network of well justified ideas that can be applied creatively to make new ideas and solve new problems. Best of luck to you.

@nadercs2669 Год назад

Wow, this video truly resonated with me! As someone working towards a degree in math and aiming to build a successful future in tech, I can totally relate to the idea of setting realistic goals in studying and the importance of consistency. The suggestion to tackle at least one problem every day is a refreshing take on discipline. It's not about overloading yourself but setting a reachable target that can snowball into something bigger. I also agree with the connection between mathematics and physical activity; recently started working out at the gym, I can already feel the synergy between mental and physical discipline. The blend of mathematical prowess and personal growth you've highlighted here is a fantastic reminder that it's often the simplest habits that make the most significant impact. Kudos to the MathSorcerer for sharing such profound insights, and thanks for reminding us all to avoid decision paralysis and just get started. Incremental progress truly does make a difference! 🧠💪 P.S. Those book recommendations at the end? Definitely going to look into them. Always seeking to learn and grow

@jcdentonunatco 8 месяцев назад

Depends how long you want to take until you master it, if that is your goal. They say it takes 10,000 hours to truly master something. Seems like a reasonable number. So divide 10,000 hours into the timeframe you want to master it by and there’s your answer!

I’m new to your channel and the one question that’s on my mind is Why? I don’t need to be convinced of how fun math can be, but do you use even a percentage of what you learn? Im really curious what your motivation is to learn all of these topics. For CS at least, I feel like if I learn a cool concept I can write a short program to mess around and do something real. With math I struggle to get that same kind of feedback and opportunity to apply it to something cool. What do you think? Thank you for the insightful video!

@cowboyglizzy1883 4 месяца назад

To answer the video's title (question): As much as it takes. People should already know that there's no one definitive answer to questions such as those. We are different. It all comes down to daily routines and what's going on during it, how you're feeling, etc... For me it was 4 hours during class, then about 2 hours on average homework and sometimes 2~4 hours another class during the evening.

Math Sorcerer I have a question for you. How many things can we "do at least one thing every day" for? How many areas of life can we progress simultaneously using the strategy you propose? I am someone who tends to expect greatness from myself in all areas of life which leads to the paralysis you mention. I know this takes things out of the scope of just getting better at math but I think it's important to know how to choose what you want to progress and what needs to be sacrificed.

What is your perspective on this situation? I would feel that trying another problem won't do it for me.

Posting without having watched the video yet. Probably a bad idea,, but... I have a goal of 1 hour of math (minimum) per day. I set a Google calendar reminder and everything. But... I more or less know that there are some days it just isn't going to happen. Because I also try to cycle 40 miles a week, and some nights if I work all day at my day job and then go for a bike ride, I wind up not having time for math. But OTOH, on weekend days when I have no other commitments, I sometimes do 4+ hours. Like today, I went to the cafe at Barnes & Noble and did math for about 4 hours. And I may do some more before I go to bed. So I think my weekly average works out to at least 7 hours a week so in my mind, I rationalize that as being more or less equivalent to hitting the 1 hour a day mark. 🙂

"Sometimes you just need to start" That's how I "trick" myself into doing math when I really don't want to. I just copy the problem onto paper. Just copy it and go do something else. While I'm doing that something else, I can't help but start to solve it in my head. At least as much as I can. Until I literally can't hold back and have to sit down and do it, and once I do that first problem, I'm off. I can go for as long as I need to.

@manfredconnor3194 8 месяцев назад

So I am trying to get an overview of math, so that I can make a curriculum for my self-study. I realize that math the way it was presented to us in school was probably not optimal. I am trying to get an overview and go about it systematically. I never got to calculus, but I had algebra and trig as well as statistics in college. I feel like I need to go back to doing fractions, proportions and ratios. Maybe I should learn some logic first? Otherwise, I am thinking. Do some remedial work. Review fractions, ratios and proportions, then go to geometry. From Geometry, go to Algebra and Trigonometry? Then go on to Calculus? I am thinking this is the way, but realize. I am only re-following the path of the public school system in the 70s and 80s. There are a lot of areas/fields/domains/aspects/subjects in math that I have never even heard of much less experienced. Where do I start? How do I do this systematically in a the best most logical sequence, so that things build on each other? I do not have the foggiest idea. I have looked at this: ru-vid.com/video/%D0%B2%D0%B8%D0%B4%D0%B5%D0%BE-OmJ-4B-mS-Y.html I have no idea wtf quaternions are or octonions, for example. Applied mathematics seems to be the most practical thing to learn. I want to be on the job and see some problem and be able to say, "Well those are just right triangles, and so those angles must there be congruent." and basta! I am able to solve the problem or some shit like that. That is how I imagine it. I suspect not knowing math all these years that, I have just been going all through life , like a fool, with the answers to seemingly unassailable problems (for me at least) being right in front of my nose all the time, but not being able to see them or recognize them. I imagine other people laughing at how dumb I am. So perhaps if for nothing else, but my infinite vanity, I would like to put a stop to all that, but where do I start? I cannot see the forest for the trees!

@KarlSnyder-jh9ic 4 месяца назад

I'm blessed with being excited about learning math. I'm not taking courses, so I can go at my own speed. I'm trying to relearn everything I learned in school, while also soaking up new things. I was always short on algebra skills, and struggled with trig functions. So now with Internet resources at my disposal I can scout around and indulge my wims. Review chain, product, and quotient rules; learn Heron's rule; memorize squares and cubes of integers etc. I know: Pretty primitive. But it's fun and I can see my mind being able to focus better both on math and every day tasks. My dad spent his retirement years golfing, I do math.

I recently just failed all my Entrance Exams and I am about to take them again next year it's all because I suck at Math and never listened to my professors in high school. I recently bought 3 books 1 for algebra, 1 for trigonometry, and a Reviewer with lots of problems for what could come out in the next Entrance Exams. But I am quite scared that I might actually fail again because I do not know how to utilize the book and I don't know how to study mathematics the right way. I may have been studying wrong this whole time by just answering the questions in the book and reviewing them all over again.

I've been going with what feels "natural" and I find I oscillate throughout the week. I end up doing about 5-6 days a week and spend half an hour of each of those days just re-viewing concepts and rules on flashcards, then it will vary between 1-2 hours and 4 hours of doing questions or taking notes and transferring them to flashcards afterwards. The last day I end up doing something else, like performing music or going outside. I find that you don't retain too much if you force yourself in fixed, long sessions.

there is no such thing as a certain number of hours to be spent or a certain number of mathematical problems to be solved each day. mathematics is not done with a pen and a paper. it is done in the mind. pen and paper are only to write down all the steps and the solution that is already present in the mind. one is always working on one or more problems simultaneously in one's mind at all times and in all places. the greatest insights into solutions come when one is either waking up or when one is going to sleep, the stage 2 or 3 of the sleep-wake cycle. it is during these times that the subconscious brings into consciousness what it had been working on during the awake phase.

I’ve been looking for his book suggestion. He shown a book on how calculus shown up in real life. Does anyone know? 😅 I made the mistake of thinking I’ll remember the name.

I’m genuinely terrified of starting calculus self study, my basic pre calc trig and functions are pretty good, I’m starting calculus in school in about six months but I want to get a head start, but I’m worried il be waisting my time not studying more basic concepts that will help me in class now rather than in six months

its against regulation (building code) in the us and canada to have unpainted particle board or oriented strand board on the interior walls of a structure because the material gives off poisonous gases which are known to cause cancer. I am sad to notice two unpainted sheets behind the speaker in the video. In a standard structure osb is the exterior sheathing and gypsum drywall on the interior walls but osb could be used legally and safely on the interior if it was painted.

You are right, last time i wanted count houers spent with learning and it turn out bad idea , measure of time kill satisfaction of dping something , more it should be flow

CS student here - Agree with everything. Physical activity. Thinking in terms of doing problems vs time alloted. I, along with my peers, have fallen into the time alloted slot and you're right. Waking up and dreading it does happen and makes it less productive.

Yes, one problem a day is a great way of making, "Just make a Start", into something concrete. (And because it's easier to just follow lectures than problem-solve, the item to put on the agenda needs to be the problem. The new maths etc. will pretty much take care of itself, given that right start.)

In the book "The man who loved only numbers" it mentioned that G.H Hardy only studied around 4 hours a day and Paul Erdos was, at least at one point of his career around 19 hours.

Every time I am doing hard math homework and I get a question I was struggling on right, I scream "I am the Math sorcerer!" and I'm pretty sure it makes me smarter

@gplus46 Год назад

To do it daily I had to link it to my practical life. So I became a ms math teacher. At 53 not sure about any wizard level math, but I am a changed fan!!

I spend 1-2 hours a day but sometimes i just can't get my self to do math and sometimes i can't go without doing math

Did anyone else see him pick up the physics book and break physics on the green book 0.o

Hey Math Sorcerer, how much money does it cost for a video request ?

@streampunksheep Год назад

I stopped doing maths for awhile now but I am getting back into it. I think 1 problem a day is the best way for me for now

Idk what a proof is but I can multiply up to 10

The ratio of meta-math content to actual mathematics is too high for this channel.

perfect explanation, thanks...

@gvi341984 Год назад

Majority of undergraduate math is algebra and that's the biggest issue

Guys please help me with this question: There are 2 inhabitants of the Island, knights who always tell the truth and knaves who always lie. You encounter two people A and B. Determine, if possible, what A and B are if they address you in the ways described. If you cannot determine what these 2 people are, can you draw any conclusion? - A says " At least one of us is a knave" and B says nothing

@yaya100000 Год назад

Supposed A is a knave. Then the statement is false, implying neither A nor B are knaves. Hence A is a knave implies A is not a knave. Hence A must be a knight.
