In order to become better than anybody else you must first become better than yourself.

Work like you don't need the money, dance like nobody's watching and love like you've never been hurt. 

You can pick up a mistake and carry it as a burden,  or you can set it down as use it as a stepping stone to greatness.

There are no shortcuts to any place worth going.

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

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

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

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

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.

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

It is never too late to become what you might have been

Failure to prepare = preparing to fail

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

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

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