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. 

If you fail, next time fail better.

It is never too late to become what you might have been

Failure is not the opposite of success, it is part of the success.

Yesterday is history, tomorrow is a mystery, but today is a gift—that's why it's called 'the present

Don’t practice until you get it right, practice until you can’t get it wrong.

It always seems impossible until it's done.

The wise person knows that no answer is also an answer

Success can never happen without the journey (struggle).

Work ethic is important, because, unlike intelligence, athleticism, or charisma, or any natural attribute, it’s a choice.

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

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

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

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

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