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.

The journey of a thousand miles begins with one step. 

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

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.

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

The power of reflection is the most powerful skill you’ll learn.

The easiest person to deceive is yourself.

It is never too late to become what you might have been

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

There is great wisdom in being able to realise that you don’t understand something before it goes too far.

Lose an hour in the morning and you will spend all day looking for it.

Practice like you’ve never won. Perform like you’ve never lost.

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

Your attitude is everything. Pick a good one.
