There are no shortcuts to any place worth going.

We are all maths people : step 1 - do maths and step 2 - be a person. 

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.

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. 

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

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

In order to become better than anybody else you must first become better than yourself.

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

Everything that happens was once a dream.

Dreams don't work unless you do.

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

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

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

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

Success is the sum of small repeated efforts, day in and day out.
