I fear not the man who has practiced 10,000 kicks once, but I fear the man who has practiced one kick 10,000 times.

You can hire a tutor but you can't hire someone to practice for you.

Skills are built not born.

We are all maths people : step 1 - do maths and step 2 - be a person. 

Fall down seven times, stand up eight.

When you make a mistake, take another chance. Only when you choose not to do so do you fail.

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

I think, therefore I am.

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

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

Hard work beats talent when talent doesn't work hard.

If you really want something you’ll find a way. If you don’t you’ll find an excuse.

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

The greatest glory in loving lies not in never falling, but in rising every time we fall.

There are no bad mistakes in maths, only discoveries.
