Nothing is impossible if you want it badly enough. Impossible = I'm possible.

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

Time is your friend, impulse is your enemy.

Each day is an opportunity to improve. Aim to be that little bit better than yesterday and better tomorrow than today.

Fall down seven times, stand up eight.

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

Procrastination makes easy things hard and hard things harder.

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

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.

There are no shortcuts to any place worth going.

The journey of a thousand miles begins with one step. 

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

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

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

Practice makes comfort. Expand your experiences regularly so every stretch won't feel like your first.
