What do we learn from Yoga today/

I learnt from yoga today...that not everything has to be perfect.

I learnt that my teacher won't always be feeling me as in the same frequency as me.

I learnt that as long as I mind the fundamentals, the advanced stuff will come.

I learnt that Yoga is optional but the breath isn't.

How to we translate this to derivatives exam??

Mind the fundamentals
Do what is necessary to ace it....i.e. no need to over-kill
breath
