There is no talent here. There is hard work and obsession. You could be anyone if you put in the time.

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. 

Instead of finding reasons why you can't, find reasons why you can.

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

You cannot start the next chapter of your life if you keep re-reading the last one.

You can hire a tutor but you can't hire someone to practice for you.

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

Skills are built not born.

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.

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

Hard work always pays off - it is not a question of if you will get there, but WHEN you will get there

If you can understand just one thing thoroughly, then you will understand everything.

The boxer is not afraid of being knocked down, he is afraid of not being able to get up again.

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

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