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. 

There are no bad mistakes in maths, only discoveries.

Skills are built not born.

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

Dreams don't work unless you do.

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

Be strong enough to stand alone, smart enough to know when you need help, and brave enough to ask for it.

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

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

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

FAIL - First Attempt In Learning

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

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

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

A hero is no braver than an ordinary man, but he is braver five minutes longer.
