Math is about conceptualizing, if you are seeking for reality or truth, you tend to visualize things in their correct nature, this makes understanding math difficult. For the sake of conceptualizing, forget about what in reality math matches to and just absractly conceptualize the concepts of math. If you like philosopy of religion, you are likely to be a person who is after truth, that, at the begginning, makes understanding math difficult, for it is a modeling language of concepts but not concrete reality. Once you leave your stubborness against the search for the truth thing or seeing the concrete implementations or references in Math, you will be good at it. That was what happened to me when i was in middle school, after a year i became very good at math out of the worst person in the class.
Create your own abstract way of converting math language. it will help you have a framework and reusable thinking units in your brain. Then you will use these little units to understand big concepts. And any new concept will require compilation of the knowledge to your own set of thinking instructions.
But i am good in maths all time ...
I envy those people who are the real legends in gaming world !!
