The greatest enemy to human potential is your comfort zone

A hero is no braver than an ordinary man, but he is braver five minutes longer.

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

There are no bad mistakes in maths, only discoveries.

Time is your friend, impulse is your enemy.

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. 

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

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

Your attitude is everything. Pick a good one.

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

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

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

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

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

I have not failed, I've just found 10,000 ways that won't work.
