The journey of a thousand miles begins with one step.

There are no shortcuts to any place worth going.

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

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

There are no bad mistakes in maths, only discoveries.

MATHS = Mistakes Allow Thinking To Happen

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

You cannot escape the responsibility of tomorrow by evading it today

I think, therefore I am.

Each day is an opportunity to improve. Aim to be that little bit better than yesterday and better tomorrow than today.

The journey of a thousand miles begins with one step. 

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.

Mathematics Is not a spectator sport. The only way to learn mathematics is to do mathematics.

Success is a journey, not a destination.

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