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. 

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

Dreams don't work unless you do.

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

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

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

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

Tough times never last, but tough people do.

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

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

There are no shortcuts to any place worth going.

Life is full of opportunities. With every opportunity that is missed, another one is born.

The road to success is like a staircase. If you want to succeed, double your failure rate

We all have two lives. The second begins when we realise we only have one. 

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