There are no bad mistakes in maths, only discoveries.

Run in the morning before your body figures out what you're doing

I fear not the man who has practiced 10,000 kicks once, but I fear the man who has practiced one kick 10,000 times.

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

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. 

The journey of a thousand miles begins with one step.

Pure mathematics is in its way, the poetry of logical ideas.

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

The greatest glory in loving lies not in never falling, but in rising every time we fall.

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

Don't put off until tomorrow what you can do today. If today you have no time, it means tomorrow you'll be too tired and the next day you'll be something else.

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

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

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

If you really want something you’ll find a way. If you don’t you’ll find an excuse.
