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

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

The road to success is like a staircase. If you want to succeed, double your failure rate

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

Run in the morning before your body figures out what you're doing

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

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

Don't expect to be good at maths or understand things straight away. Be patient and persistent. The most powerful warriors are patience and time.

It doesn’t matter where you start, it matters how you end

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

Good mathematics is not about how many answers you know... It is about how you behave when you don't know.

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

Work ethic is important, because, unlike intelligence, athleticism, or charisma, or any natural attribute, it’s a choice.

Failure is not the opposite of success, it is part of the success.

Try and do one thing each day that you would really rather not do.
