The journey of a thousand miles begins with one step.

Good mathematics is not about how many answers you know... It is about how you behave when you don't know.

The gift of imperfection - let go of who you think you're supposed to be and embrace who you are.

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.

Time is your friend, impulse is your enemy.

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

Skills are built not born.

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

There are no bad mistakes in maths, only discoveries.

GCSE and A Level Maths are a marathon not a sprint

Tough times never last, but tough people do.

He who has begun his task is half-way done. Have the courage to begin!

The greatest enemy to human potential is your comfort zone

If you fail, next time fail better.

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