Skills are built not born.

We learn more from failure than we do from success.

Don't be afraid to take an unfamiliar path.  Sometimes they're the ones that lead you to the best places.

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. 

Time is your friend, impulse is your enemy.

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

The journey of a thousand miles begins with one step.

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

Do what you have always done and you will always be what you have always been

There are no shortcuts to any place worth going.

The greatest enemy to human potential is your comfort zone

Tough times never last, but tough people do.

Just stick with it, what seems hard now will one day be your warm up.

Work like you don't need the money, dance like nobody's watching and love like you've never been hurt. 

Procrastination makes easy things hard and hard things harder.
