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

The journey of a thousand miles begins with one step.

Fall down seven times, stand up eight.

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

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

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. 

You cannot escape the responsibility of tomorrow by evading it today

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

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

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

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.

I fear not the man who has practiced 10,000 kicks once, but I fear the man who has practiced one kick 10,000 times.

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

Tomorrow is worth more than yesterday but less than today.

When you make a mistake, take another chance. Only when you choose not to do so do you fail.
