Skills are built not born.

No one starts out on top. You have to work your way up.

There is no elevator to success, you have to take the stairs.

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

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

You cannot escape the responsibility of tomorrow by evading it today

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.

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

Dreams don't work unless you do.

Success is the sum of small repeated efforts, day in and day out.

The greatest mistake we make is living in constant fear that we will make one.

Procrastination makes easy things hard and hard things harder.

Time is your friend, impulse is your enemy.

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

Mathematics Is not a spectator sport. The only way to learn mathematics is to do mathematics.
