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

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

We learn more from failure than we do from success.

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

It is never too late to turn an unproductive day into a productive one.

FAIL - First Attempt In Learning

Skills are built not born.

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

Just stick with it, what seems hard now will one day be your warm up.

Never underestimate the importance of small steps. small steps = big changes. 

Fall down seven times, stand up eight.

Dreams don't work unless you do.

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

Nothing is impossible if you want it badly enough. Impossible = I'm possible.

Failure to prepare = preparing to fail
