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. 

It doesn’t matter where you start, it matters how you end

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

Never underestimate the importance of small steps. small steps = big changes. 

Procrastination makes easy things hard and hard things harder.

99% of genius comes from hard work, the remaining 1% comes from innate talent

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

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

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

The journey of a thousand miles begins with one step.

FAIL - First Attempt In Learning

We learn more from failure than we do from success.

The master has failed more times than the beginner has even tried

Success is the sum of small repeated efforts, day in and day out.
