Yesterday is history, tomorrow is a mystery, but today is a gift—that's why it's called 'the present

If you really want something you’ll find a way. If you don’t you’ll find an excuse.

Each day is an opportunity to improve. Aim to be that little bit better than yesterday and better tomorrow than today.

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

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

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. 

The journey of a thousand miles begins with one step.

There are no shortcuts to any place worth going.

We are all maths people : step 1 - do maths and step 2 - be a person. 

Tough times never last, but tough people do.

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

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

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

The journey of a thousand miles begins with one step. 

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