The easiest person to deceive is yourself.

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

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

We all make mistakes. What matters is how we choose to move forwards from them.

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

Be strong enough to stand alone, smart enough to know when you need help, and brave enough to ask for it.

Time is your friend, impulse is your enemy.

Hard work - a two way street where you get exactly what you put in.

We learn more from failure than we do from success.

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.

Whenever you find yourself doubting how far you can go, just remember how far you have come.

Failure to prepare = preparing to fail

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.

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

Tough times never last, but tough people do.
