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

Skills are built not born.

FAIL - First Attempt In Learning

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

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

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

There are no bad mistakes in maths, only discoveries.

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

Tough times never last, but tough people do.

The journey of a thousand miles begins with one step.

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

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

Mistakes have the power to turn you into something better than you were before.

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