Failure to prepare = preparing to fail

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

Just stick with it, what seems hard now will one day be your warm up.

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

The journey of a thousand miles begins with one step. 

Skills are built not born.

99% of genius comes from hard work, the remaining 1% comes from innate talent

Don’t compare yourself to others. Compare yourself to the person you were yesterday.

Hope might be a good breakfast, but it makes a very poor dinner

There is no talent here. There is hard work and obsession. You could be anyone if you put in the time.

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

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

Success is not final, failure is not fatal.  It is the courage to continue that counts.

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

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