It seems it is mid 12week goal setting block #
I am still focusing on the same things, and work everyday on the few things I am working on, but the blog posts slowed down a bit. I have many insights into mathematics, learning the basics. I started reading and doing the proofs of Euclid's Elements, the illustrated version by David Byrne is superb. I am also continuing to work through the statistics book by Obadovics, learning combinatorics, practicing visualising, memorising, and multidimensional thinking. For the last few days I have been having a quote recur in my mind "A mathematician is a device for turning coffee into theorems", I thought it was by Paul Erdos, but it is by Alfred Renyi. There is another good one, I just found on this page: "If I feel unhappy, I do mathematics to become happy. If I am happy, I do mathematics to keep happy.".
