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

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

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

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

Fall down seven times, stand up eight.

You can have results or excuses, not both

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

The temptation to quit will be the greatest when you are about to succeed

Don’t be afraid to work hard and find out how good you can really be.

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.

Work ethic is important, because, unlike intelligence, athleticism, or charisma, or any natural attribute, it’s a choice.

Tough times never last, but tough people do.

The power of reflection is the most powerful skill you’ll learn.

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

Your attitude is everything. Pick a good one.
