I am a spreadsheet kind of guy. A lot of my work is done in Excel and such. My job has me doing advanced routing concepts (EIGRP, OSPF, etc.), CIDR, subnetting, IP addressing, and whatnot, but I've recently found that I have to take some of the basic math courses to refresh myself on Algebra and the like. I reckon that with the proper amount of work, most folks are able to succeed at what they put their minds to...motivation and intestinal fortitude are wonderful in that regard.
Some folks are blessed to find math concepts easy to grasp, while others struggle at it. What makes the difference is the motivational aspect...why am I doing this? What are the benefits? What do I have to do to get from Point A to Point B? Finally, we should all be asking, "Is there a way to make this interesting and make it apply to my life?"
'Nuff said.
