The journey of a thousand miles begins with one step.

Fall down seven times, stand up eight.

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. 

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

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

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

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

1.00³⁶⁵=1 and 1.01³⁶⁵=37.7. Doing nothing at all versus small steps at a time. 

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

The master has failed more times than the beginner has even tried

The greatest mistake we make is living in constant fear that we will make one.

Procrastination makes easy things hard and hard things harder.

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

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

Tough times never last, but tough people do.
