There are no shortcuts to any place worth going.

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

Success is the sum of small repeated efforts, day in and day out.

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

A book a day keeps the stupidity away.

Don't fear failure, fear being in the same exact same place next year as you are now.

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

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

Do Not Be Afraid To Make Mistakes. Each mistake teaches us something.

Success is not final, failure is not fatal.  It is the courage to continue that counts.

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. 

Skills are built not born.

Never underestimate the importance of small steps. small steps = big changes. 

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

Dreams don't work unless you do.
