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

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

Everything you want is on the other side of fear

Knowledge is of no value unless you put it into practice.

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

The temptation to quit will be the greatest when you are about to succeed

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

I had no time is no excuse. 1 hour is 4% of your day and 1 minute is 0.34 % of your day.

If you really want something you’ll find a way. If you don’t you’ll find an excuse.

MATHS = Mistakes Allow Thinking To Happen

The easiest person to deceive is yourself.

We all have two lives. The second begins when we realise we only have one. 

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

The wise person knows that no answer is also an answer

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.
