We are all maths people : step 1 - do maths and step 2 - be a person. 

Skills are built not born.

Everything you want is on the other side of fear

Knowledge is of no value unless you put it into practice.

A hero is no braver than an ordinary man, but he is braver five minutes longer.

Each day is an opportunity to improve. Aim to be that little bit better than yesterday and better tomorrow than today.

Dreams don't work unless you do.

Hard work - a two way street where you get exactly what you put in.

The temptation to quit will be the greatest when you are about to succeed

Procrastination is the thief of time and the enemy of success.

Hard work beats talent when talent doesn't work hard.

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. 

I can is 100 times more important than IQ.

There are no bad mistakes in maths, only discoveries.

I had no time is no excuse. 1 hour is 4% of your day and 1 minute is 0.34 % of your day.
