Read a lot of books and papers, and when they state a proposition, before you read the proof, at least ask yourself “why should this be true?”, if not attempt to prove it yourself. I think most mathematicians only carry a few different hammers, and go out looking for nails. There’s only so many things one mind can find intuitive. Even Euler relied on his core expertise with formal algebra and generating functions. | |
