Good mathematics is not about how many answers you know... It is about how you behave when you don't know.

The journey of a thousand miles begins with one step.

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.

We learn more from failure than we do from success.

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

Start, struggle, fail, fix and learn. Repeat.

The wise person knows that no answer is also an answer

Don’t compare yourself to others. Compare yourself to the person you were yesterday.

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

Tough times never last, but tough people do.

You can be shown the path, but only you can make the first step.

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

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. 

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

Practice like you’ve never won. Perform like you’ve never lost.
