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

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

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. 

The bad news is time flies, the good new is that you're the pilot.

Skills are built not born.

I think, therefore I am.

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

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

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

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

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

Good mathematics is not about how many answers you know... It is about how you behave when you don't know.

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

We learn more from failure than we do from success.

Pure mathematics is in its way, the poetry of logical ideas.
