How does your mind work?
After enough practice, many of us simply know answers to problems,
but do you have some idea about how your unique mind prepares to
analyze problems in math, physics, or anything for that matter.
In other words, how would you describe the preparatory inner workings of your mind?
For instance, do you use visual, audio, or some unique combination of things
during preparation for analysis. Please watch the videos below before answering.
There is no right or wrong answer so please feel free to
answer anyway you want. Thank you.

My phone's being a homophobic and won't let me watch the videos, I hope you don't mind if I answer the question anyway...
"Imagine you brain like a bee, it buzzes around pretty fast and gets a lot of things done, it's smarter the a fly. Now picture my brain as a bee hive, I have a thousand of little bees like you in my brain, and they all work together to get me the answer I need a thousand times faster than you're little brain can. Remember that, it'll come in handy short stuff."
Hahaha.
No, for real, my mind has to use visualizations to figure things out, except I feel like the visuals are 4D.
Like if I can't see it or picture it in my mind I won't understand it. My mind seems to be stuck in a little box though, like I can gain all of this knowledge and read a million books, but I just don't get certain things. It's like my mind has a family filter that's put in backwards.
