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

Lose an hour in the morning and you will spend all day looking for it.

The bad news is time flies, the good new is that you're the pilot.

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 start the next chapter of your life if you keep re-reading the last one.

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

You cannot escape the responsibility of tomorrow by evading it today

You can have results or excuses, not both

Procrastination makes easy things hard and hard things harder.

99% of genius comes from hard work, the remaining 1% comes from innate talent

Do what you have always done and you will always be what you have always been

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

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

Work on your weaknesses until they are your strengths and work on your strengths until they are second nature.

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