Work ethic is important, because, unlike intelligence, athleticism, or charisma, or any natural attribute, it’s a choice.

Don't expect to be good at maths or understand things straight away. Be patient and persistent. Rome wasn't built in a day, but they worked on it every single day. 

Skills are built not born.

Success is not final, failure is not fatal.  It is the courage to continue that counts.

Twenty years from now you will be more disappointed by the things you didn’t do than the things you did do

Good mathematics is not about how many answers you know... It is about how you behave when you don't know.

Don’t practice until you get it right, practice until you can’t get it wrong.

The journey of a thousand miles begins with one step. 

I have not failed, I've just found 10,000 ways that won't work.

Focus on progress, not perfection. Practise a little bit every day - little and often  Slow and steady wins the race.

The power of reflection is the most powerful skill you’ll learn.

Try and do one thing each day that you would really rather not do.

Don't fear failure, fear being in the same exact same place next year as you are now.

It is never too late to turn an unproductive day into a productive one.

Everything that happens was once a dream.
