Globalization

In the recent years cultures are becoming more and more influnced by each other. They are gradually starting to look the same. This have led to some people to think that there is no need to travel to experience different culture because they can experience it in their own country. Although it might be true that cultures around the world are getting influenced by each other, they are still unique.

First of all, different cultures speak different languages. Language is part of the identity of each person. For example Arabic is the language of Islam. Muslim need learn Arabic to read Quran. Jewish need to learn Hebrew to read Torah. Traveling to a country where the majority can speak certain language and meeting the local people will allow you to understand the culture more.

Second of all, many cultures have historical building that can explain the history of their culture. When you go there and see the place by your eye and feel the atmosphere in your heart, you will have better understanding of the culture.

These kind of experiences cannot be experienced in your own country.

Why You Cannot Achieve More Than One Goal in The Same Period of Time

One of the most common traps people fall into is trying very hard to achieve more than one goal in the same period of time. They might be very motivated to master more than one skill so they create a schedule to help them work on all their goals in a daily basis. They keep working hard on multiple goals in the same time for months without getting a satisfying result. Then they start to question their strategy in learning each skill and change it and keep repeating the same cycle again. They start to work on one goal all the time but after two or three weeks they start to work in more than one goal and the cycle keep repeating.             What I mean by a goal or a skill in this post is something like, improving your academic performance, master a musical instrument, learn a language, have a good body shape, learn drawing, be a great engineer, be great writer, learn a coding language, …etc. These are just some examples but you ...

2022/05/04 (Why Calculus is Difficult?)

 During our 12 years in school, we have learned all algebra techniques such as additions, substructions, division and multiplication. In each one of these techniques, there are many techniques. If you have an exam, you know which techniques you need to study to pass the exam.  However, in Calculus it is more complicated. In each problem, you need to use a technique before you start solving the problem. In each exam, you will have to use many techniques before you start solving any problem. You are supposed to be able to use each one of these techniques. But there are so many techniques and you don't remember all of them because you haven't used them since long time ago. Or you might be not sure which technique you need to use because some problems can be solved by more than one specific technique.  So when students start studying Calculus, the teacher assumes that they already know all the simple techniques that schools teach. Calculus teacher keep repeating this phrases ...
