I Was Never a Math Person: (And Other Lies I Believed)

By Eduardo D. Zúñiga

What if the thing that broke wasn't your ability to do math, but your belief in what you're capable of?

By the time this author finished school, he didn't need anyone to tell him he wasn't a "math person" anymore. He said it himself, the way you'd mention your eye color. A fact. But that phrase stopped being about math a long time ago. It became the way he approached anything new and difficult: a job he wasn't sure he could handle, a hard conversation he kept avoiding, a dream he shelved before even trying.

This isn't a math book. Through ten short, honest chapters, each one built around a real classroom memory, it explores the psychology behind fear of failure, self-doubt, comparison, and the quiet belief that some of us just "aren't capable." Grounded in real psychological concepts (growth mindset, self-efficacy, self-compassion) but told through story, not lecture.

If you've ever felt like the one who didn't get it, this book is for you.
