A hero is no braver than an ordinary man, but he is braver five minutes longer.

Skills are built not born.

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

Good mathematics is not about how many answers you know... It is about how you behave when you don't know.

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

Your limitation - its only your imagination.

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

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

The greatest enemy to human potential is your comfort zone

Patience is when you’re supposed to get mad, but you choose to understand

Twenty years from now you will be more disappointed by the things you didn’t do than the things you did do

Don’t confuse your path with your destination. Just because its stormy now doesn’t mean you are headed for failure.

You can have results or excuses, not both

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. 

GCSE and A Level Maths are a marathon not a sprint
