these are little notes i jotted down over the last week or so. they never became outright blog posts, but i figured that i'd share them anyway.
When i think about it, i've always juggled several projects at once. it's just that i've never done it well.
I must be doing something wrong.
why does everything take so long?
i wrote the exam solutions for my analysis class in 10 minutes. on the other hand, it took an hour to write the motivations behind the solutions.
(to explain, i've been stressing how one thinks up a proof vs. how one writes a proof.)
i have no problem correcting students' proofs and indicating errors. however, it's hard to figure out how many points an error is worth.
it's hard to sense progress when writing. all the satisfaction is at the end, when it's done. but then that feeling is too much at once, leaving you tired and unmotivated, because there is no ready accomplishment that can warrant the same (excessively high) satisfaction.
