It is never too late to turn an unproductive day into a productive one.

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

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

Time is your friend, impulse is your enemy.

Skills are built not born.

Whenever you find yourself doubting how far you can go, just remember how far you have come.

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

Go as far as you can see, when you get there, you’ll be able to see further

Don’t practice until you get it right, practice until you can’t get it wrong.

There are no shortcuts to any place worth going.

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

Never underestimate the importance of small steps. small steps = big changes. 

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

A book a day keeps the stupidity away.

Don't fear failure, fear being in the same exact same place next year as you are now.
