The journey of a thousand miles begins with one step. 

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

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

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

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

There are no shortcuts to any place worth going.

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.

Failure to prepare = preparing to fail

The greatest mistake we make is living in constant fear that we will make one.

Be strong enough to stand alone, smart enough to know when you need help, and brave enough to ask for it.

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

The wise person knows that no answer is also an answer

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

The easiest person to deceive is yourself.

There is no talent here. There is hard work and obsession. You could be anyone if you put in the time.
