Can I just say, and I'm just being honest...

CIJS-

Why is it that the most difficult conversations are also the most necessary ones to have?

Perhaps because they lead towards things you are subconsciously trying to avoid or afraid of.

CIJS,

I'm very grateful that I've decided to self-study mathematical analysis.  In particular, while I was doing some proof exercises today, I experienced firsthand how awesome it is to harmonize various mathematical ideas, exercises, and theorems in order to establish the truth of a given mathematical statement, which IMO, was a very rewarding endeavor. 

Also, I'd like to thank Daniel Solow for his book "How to Read and do Proofs": he emphasized the importance of being able to fill in the details of a proof written by someone else and to effectively make sense of it via self-explanation and learning to spot key words which indicate the usage of basic proof-writing techniques.  This skill has been invaluable to me, especially when I need to make sense of the proofs that have been presented in my analysis book.

Wow. I sure am glad I don't have to think that much.

If it does not feel right, it's not right.
