Fall down seven times, stand up eight.

Shoot for the moon and even if you miss you’ll land among the stars/

There is no elevator to success, you have to take the stairs.

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

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

You're not in competition with anyone but yourself. Outdo your past, not other people.

Our fixed mindset builds our cage, fear keeps us in it.

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. 

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

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

Failure is NOT your destiny. Failure is the key to success.

Everything you want is on the other side of fear

There are no bad mistakes in maths, only discoveries.

Start, struggle, fail, fix and learn. Repeat.

A book a day keeps the stupidity away.
