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

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

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

Yesterday is history, tomorrow is a mystery, but today is a gift—that's why it's called 'the present

The easiest person to deceive is yourself.

Try and do one thing each day that you would really rather not do.

It is never too late to become what you might have been

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. 

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

It doesn’t matter where you start, it matters how you end

Skills are built not born.

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

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.

Knowledge is of no value unless you put it into practice.

There is great wisdom in being able to realise that you don’t understand something before it goes too far.
