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

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

The journey of a thousand miles begins with one step. 

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

"I" not them. Be the best version of you.

Do what you have always done and you will always be what you have always been

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

Procrastination makes easy things hard and hard things harder.

Tough times never last, but tough people do.

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

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

If you fail, next time fail better.

You can have results or excuses, not both

There is no talent here. There is hard work and obsession. You could be anyone if you put in the time.

Hard work always pays off - it is not a question of if you will get there, but WHEN you will get there
