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

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

If you fail, next time fail better.

If you can understand just one thing thoroughly, then you will understand everything.

Work like you don't need the money, dance like nobody's watching and love like you've never been hurt. 

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

The easiest person to deceive is yourself.

Don't fear failure, fear being in the same exact same place next year as you are now.

You cannot start the next chapter of your life if you keep re-reading the last one.

Instead of finding reasons why you can't, find reasons why you can.

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

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

Success is the sum of small repeated efforts, day in and day out.

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 cannot escape the responsibility of tomorrow by evading it today
