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

You can have results or excuses, not both

There is no elevator to success, you have to take the stairs.

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

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

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

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

It is never too late to turn an unproductive day into a productive one.

Just stick with it, what seems hard now will one day be your warm up.

Everything that happens was once a dream.

Don’t compare yourself to others. Compare yourself to the person you were yesterday.

There are no bad mistakes in maths, only discoveries.

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

We all make mistakes. What matters is how we choose to move forwards from them.

We learn more from failure than we do from success.
