The first thing I would do is change my believe system. What I mean is the thoughts you are telling yourself, "not good at math, not for me" just too hard for me etc. These although you believe them to be true are just negative mantras.
Math is based on rules. Spend at least 20 minutes 3 x a week studying the rules. When using your math book, don't skip over things you don't know. You have to figure out HOW something is done, even if you can guess the answer because it is easy.
You have done many miracles in your life, but you haven't thought about them. Just take your time and change your thought process and you can teach math one day if you wish.

Well, math is just like anything else. If you put in hard work, you'll get the results you want. Just remember that you only get out what you put in.
I would get a tutor or ask your teacher for help. If your parents or a sibling are good at math I would ask them to help you. Practice a lot of problems and don't give up.
You should also have a positive attitude. A lot of people nowadays say 'math is soooo hard' or 'im going to fail that math test.' Don't say these kinds of things, even if it is hard. Learn to enjoy math - once you get the hang of it, it can be really fun.
Good luck!

very simple solution. practice all but the worlds top mathematicians need to practice constantly. there are half dozen people in the world don't need to practice math constantly to be good at it. hey, i have a fairly good education in math, i'm no good at this krap. i always forget the formula and etc. i get no practice. back when i used math all day every day i was pretty good at it. all about practice.
ya wanna be good at math, let yourself be obsessive about it. people who cannot read and write can learn math, but ya gotta be dam good to master it. through practice, constant practice, you can master it.
