We learn more from failure than we do from success.

Hard work always pays off - it is not a question of if you will get there, but WHEN you will get there

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

MATHS = Mistakes Allow Thinking To Happen

The journey of a thousand miles begins with one step. 

No matter how bad it gets, you’re still way ahead of those who haven’t even started.

Failure to prepare = preparing to fail

Life is full of opportunities. With every opportunity that is missed, another one is born.

You can be shown the path, but only you can make the first step.

There are no bad mistakes in maths, only discoveries.

Don’t confuse your path with your destination. Just because its stormy now doesn’t mean you are headed for failure.

There is great wisdom in being able to realise that you don’t understand something before it goes too far.

The gift of imperfection - let go of who you think you're supposed to be and embrace who you are.

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.

I have not failed, I've just found 10,000 ways that won't work.
