Don't expect to be good at maths or understand things straight away. Be patient and persistent. The most powerful warriors are patience and time.

Practice makes comfort. Expand your experiences regularly so every stretch won't feel like your first.

The gift of imperfection - let go of who you think you're supposed to be and embrace who you are.

It always seems impossible until it's done.

Tough times never last, but tough people do.

Failure is NOT your destiny. Failure is the key to success.

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

You can pick up a mistake and carry it as a burden,  or you can set it down as use it as a stepping stone to greatness.

When you make a mistake, take another chance. Only when you choose not to do so do you fail.

Work on your weaknesses until they are your strengths and work on your strengths until they are second nature.

There is great wisdom in being able to realise that you don’t understand something before it goes too far.

Don't be afraid to take an unfamiliar path.  Sometimes they're the ones that lead you to the best places.

Fall down seven times, stand up eight.

Hope might be a good breakfast, but it makes a very poor dinner

We learn more from failure than we do from success.
