Organic things take their own sweet time to develop. Human baby, nine months through standardized process, no real replacement for it. They are not born out of pills. The organic process for maturity is important: missing that, universities are overflowing (one's too many) with professors who make speeches about colour green while having been blind since birth, and conferences about sex while they being aged six-ish on the podium, and tomes "How to Understand Women" written from the cave in the desert they never left. If you wanted to approach the matter systematically, plenty of literature is available for you to study - the more you consult (the starting text is not critically important), the more defined the paths for further reading. But why should you, really? What you showed in the submission looks like some form of curiosity. That would be the kind of coin that can buy you an ice cream. If you approached the texts and you had no instruments out of wisdom to understand them, you would translate them into something they are not. So, the practical advice contextual to the original specific question would be: examine a number of promising texts - but you would have to first be mature enough for them. So, for this part, lots of life and lots more liberal education and cultivation, and strong, honest intellectual practice, to grow some sophisticated discrimination, could prepare you. And the practical advice that was literally given and you did not seem to notice, was: «maybe start with approaching Mathematics [...] solve problems» - so you will get acquainted with a special inner state core to that activity; other people "do sports" and talk about "the Zone". They are all special inner states that you develop - also organically, like maturity considered above -, and will give you the experience of non-trivial internal modalities.
