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

The greatest enemy to human potential is your comfort zone

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. 

Failure to prepare = preparing to fail

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

Everything you want is on the other side of fear

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

It doesn’t matter where you start, it matters how you end

You cannot escape the responsibility of tomorrow by evading it today

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

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

Skills are built not born.

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

Tough times never last, but tough people do.

Try and do one thing each day that you would really rather not do.
