Mathematics Is not a spectator sport. The only way to learn mathematics is to do mathematics.

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.

Our fixed mindset builds our cage, fear keeps us in it.

Good mathematics is not about how many answers you know... It is about how you behave when you don't know.

The journey of a thousand miles begins with one step. 

No one starts out on top. You have to work your way up.

There are no shortcuts to any place worth going.

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

In order to become better than anybody else you must first become better than yourself.

You're not in competition with anyone but yourself. Outdo your past, not other people.

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

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. 

He who has begun his task is half-way done. Have the courage to begin!

Success is not final, failure is not fatal.  It is the courage to continue that counts.

Go as far as you can see, when you get there, you’ll be able to see further
