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 bad news is time flies, the good new is that you're the pilot.

We learn more from failure than we do from success.

There are no bad mistakes in maths, only discoveries.

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

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

If you fail, next time fail better.

You can hire a tutor but you can't hire someone to practice for you.

Tomorrow is worth more than yesterday but less than today.

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

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

There are no shortcuts to any place worth going.

Success can never happen without the journey (struggle).

Be strong enough to stand alone, smart enough to know when you need help, and brave enough to ask for it.

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