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

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

A book a day keeps the stupidity away.

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

Hard work always pays off - it is not a question of if you will get there, but WHEN you will get there

Don't fear failure, fear being in the same exact same place next year as you are now.

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

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

We learn more from failure than we do from success.

The easiest person to deceive is yourself.

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

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

Work on your weaknesses until they are your strengths and work on your strengths until they are second nature.

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

There are no bad mistakes in maths, only discoveries.
