In the 6th grade I had a D in math. I refused to calculate anything (admittedly at my own demise (grade)). In 7th grade I got a new math teacher and got an A+ and the math award.   

I did the same thing in the first grade when I was forced to tell time with a clock. It was an 8 month protest that ended with going from ‘not being able to read a clock’ to telling the teacher the time in less 5 seconds. Continuing on to the 2nd grade with my friends, seemed worth it

All the people who labeled me ‘slow’ didn’t realize that at the age of 6 I was giving them an intelligence test - haha 😇

Intelligence and Will are inextricably linked.
