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

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. 

Whenever you find yourself doubting how far you can go, just remember how far you have come.

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

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

Time is your friend, impulse is your enemy.

Procrastination is the thief of time and the enemy of success.

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 practice until you get it right, practice until you can’t get it wrong.

Work on your weaknesses until they are your strengths and work on your strengths until they are second nature.

No matter how bad it gets, you’re still way ahead of those who haven’t even started.
