It's the state of zen you reach as a mathematician / math enthusiast where formerly you 100% loved math, and now you currently hate it. This gives you a greater view of the mathematical landscape, because you're no longer over-studying, so the brain has ample time to recharge, and you learn quicker!

Some mathematical do-ness activities that could help white-collar workers break away from their sedentary lifestyle are:
Walk exactly 6789 steps.
Create an origami geometric shape out of the newspaper.
Learn to do calculus—differentiate and integrate—with a soroban (Japanese abacus).
Count the number of ballpoint pens in your house.

Furthermore that the diameter of the universe is 10^14 Planck lengths.
Furthermore that the diameter of the universe is 10^14 Planck lengths.
Mathematical nominalism is a corollary of perimeter theory; which states that one perimeter of the circle contains uncountable perimeters.
Mathematical nominalism asserts that infinity and uncountability are separated by 10^14 Planck lengths--a distance equivalent to the entire diameter of the universe.

Two brain-unfriendly questions that exhibit mathematical purrfection are:
1. At a Cats’ Café, how many cute kittens are there if there are 9 more legs than tails?
2. Guesstimate the average cat bill at the veterinarian over her lifestyle.

The idea that math educators should focus on effort rather than on results—that failure is part of the success equation, because a set of false starts, failures, and frustrations are often necessary or unavoidable before someone could experience some degree of mathematical progress or achievement.
To fail is no shame, but failure to try again often is. A growth mindset in mathematics is to try or fail again, while failing better or faster each time.
