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. 

The journey of a thousand miles begins with one step.

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

The bad news is time flies, the good new is that you're the pilot.

We all make mistakes. What matters is how we choose to move forwards from them.

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

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

Skills are built not born.

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

MATHS = Mistakes Allow Thinking To Happen

Pure mathematics is in its way, the poetry of logical ideas.

I fear not the man who has practiced 10,000 kicks once, but I fear the man who has practiced one kick 10,000 times.

The temptation to quit will be the greatest when you are about to succeed

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

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