The gift of imperfection - let go of who you think you're supposed to be and embrace who you are.

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. 

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

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

The road to success is like a staircase. If you want to succeed, double your failure rate

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.

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.

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

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

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

If you fail, next time fail better.

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

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

He who has begun his task is half-way done. Have the courage to begin!
