Skills are built not born.

Work on your weaknesses until they are your strengths and work on your strengths until they are second nature.

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

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.

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. 

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

Success is a journey, not a destination.

Hard work - a two way street where you get exactly what you put in.

The master has failed more times than the beginner has even tried

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

The journey of a thousand miles begins with one step. 

99% of genius comes from hard work, the remaining 1% comes from innate talent

Don't put off until tomorrow what you can do today. If today you have no time, it means tomorrow you'll be too tired and the next day you'll be something else.

We learn more from failure than we do from success.

The road to success is like a staircase. If you want to succeed, double your failure rate
