The easiest person to deceive is yourself.

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

The journey of a thousand miles begins with one step. 

1.00³⁶⁵=1 and 1.01³⁶⁵=37.7. Doing nothing at all versus small steps at a time. 

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

Procrastination makes easy things hard and hard things harder.

Time is your friend, impulse is your enemy.

The road to success is like a staircase. If you want to succeed, double your failure rate

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

Don't be afraid to take an unfamiliar path.  Sometimes they're the ones that lead you to the best places.

Don't put off until tomorrow what you can do today. If today you have no time, it means tomorrow you'll be too tired and the next day you'll be something else.

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.

Practice makes comfort. Expand your experiences regularly so every stretch won't feel like your first.

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

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