"Intellectual growth should commence at birth and cease only at death" - Albert Einstein.

Humans are born with an undoubted urge to explore, question and absorb knowledge. To be curious is in our DNA; it's what drives us to uncover the secrets of the universe, map the depths of the oceans, and reach beyond our own planet. True to the wise words of Albert Einstein, the Math Committee believes that learning is a life-long process and a successful life requires persistence and confidence.

Mathematics, as a subject, is one of the most important subjects in our life. Irrespective of the field, mathematics is essential. Be it physics, chemistry, accounting, etc. mathematics is there. It’s no secret that mathematics can be challenging, but it is through these challenges that growth occurs. The biggest hurdle to overcome is not the math itself, but your attitude towards it. Having a mindset of defeat and self-doubt can be far more limiting than any equation. The only limits you have are the ones you put on yourself. 

If you are seeking to improve your math skills, then congratulations you've already completed the first step by reading this article! Practice is the key to success when it comes to math. Just like learning a musical instrument or playing a sport, building strong math skills requires regular and focused practise. Now, we aren't saying that you have to pour hours in to practice every day to improve your skills, simply 15 minutes of Education Perfect or working through textbook exercises can make a significant difference when done consistently.

The last advice we have to give you today is that it's okay to make mistakes, as long as you learn from them. Math is different from other subjects because its rules don't change. For instance, 2+2 will always equal 4. But that doesn't mean that math is boring or stuck in the past. People are constantly discovering new ways to use it, from creating technology to solving real-world problems. So keep exploring, keep questioning, and remember that every mistake is just another step towards a better understanding.

As you continue your journey with math, remember that growth never stops. Stay curious, embrace challenges, and trust in your ability to improve. After all, as Einstein said "Intellectual growth should commence at birth and cease only at death." 

As children, math was one of the first things we were taught in school, starting with addition then multiplication and eventually onto more complex work. Math has been a part of everyone's lives since the beginning. As we grow old, math is a constant in our lives; be it at the supermarket or at university, math will always be present. Without math, the world wouldn't be how it is now. Each step in math history has led to great things. For example, Albert Einstein's theory of relativity led to GPS being created. 

Since math is a constant, you can't create a theory or an equation but can discover them. This is because math is everywhere. Indian mathematician Shakuntala Devi once said "Without mathematics, there's nothing you can do. Everything around you is mathematics. Everything around you is numbers."
