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.

Your attitude is everything. Pick a good one.

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

Don't put off until tomorrow what you can do today. If today you have no time, it means tomorrow you'll be too tired and the next day you'll be something else.

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

Knowledge is of no value unless you put it into practice.

Skills are built not born.

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

Success can never happen without the journey (struggle).

Tough times never last, but tough people do.

In order to become better than anybody else you must first become better than yourself.

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

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

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