Math just wasn't my favorite. I didn't get how important math is and how it relates to real life. That's why I think I was turned off to it.

The Golden Rule: Do unto others (as in people, Mother Nature) as you would have done to yourself. Truly know thyself, and to thine own self be true. Have dreams/goals and never quit working toward achieving them.

Truly know thyself, and to thine own self be true.
