Confused?
Confused?
Don't stress out if you don't get it right away. Trust me, you will.
BEING CONFUSED IS OK!!
Being confused is when your mind is in a state of imbalance and things are not connecting. By just patiently staying in that state, not getting worried, and talking to as many people as you can, you will figure things out. You need to become like a treasure hunter in search of answers. Use the internet, use your classmates, use everybody around you. The struggle to discover is the best way to learn. I guarantee it!
