For Maths and other related topics like Physics, is it healthier to ponder about a question for an extended time that you are stuck at and figuring ways that cannot work, or just moving on and doing other shit in the problem set. Because i'm starting to find myself just taking shit i don't know lightly and starting to develop the habit of wanting to be spoonfed whenever i have some difficulty with something. Would like to hear your imputs so that we could also help others here who are also having this dilemma in their respective STEM courses.
Ask your professor, faggot.
You weren't born knowing everything.

You're framing your question in a weird way. Your real questions "God, this is hard, do I really have to do it?". The answer is obviously yes. If you want to git gud, you need to work hard.

In my opinion it's better to stay on a problem you can do until you do it (since you'll obviously learn something on that problem) rather than moving on to something you already know.

Move on and doing another problem or letting your subconscious ponder it might trigger a breakthrough

Do proofs and derivations and understand them, if it akes forever. You also start to appreciate the amazing connections in mathematics if you look into what you're doing, and personally I love that. Like when I found out that a series of rational fractions can be used to evaluate pi. How cool is that right??

Its good to be stuck on a problem for a while because you"ll think about it alot and if you can't solve it yet its better to move on to the next one. Your brain will be still somewhat working on the problem in the back of your head and you might figure out the solution in your dreams or some shit
I ever try some approaches before solve the question. I dont stop and stay thinking about the problem, I just start at the any way.
