It's not that math is hard: it's that making sure you didn't make any mistakes in your math, that is hard.

“It’s not that math is hard: it’s that making sure you didn’t make any mistakes in your math, that is hard. “

Can you explain the Atiyah–Segal completion theorem?

Math always burns a few hundred brain calories when working through problems. I'm not a natural but sure had great experiences with helpful tutors, teachers, math clubs and groups. As my old seventh grade Algebra 'always-a-marine' teacher used to drill in to us,"Math can be fun and you will like it." He had a sign on the clock also,"Time will pass, will you?"
