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

The journey of a thousand miles begins with one step. 

There are no shortcuts to any place worth going.

It is never too late to turn an unproductive day into a productive one.

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

I fear not the man who has practiced 10,000 kicks once, but I fear the man who has practiced one kick 10,000 times.

Time is your friend, impulse is your enemy.

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

Our fixed mindset builds our cage, fear keeps us in it.

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. 

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

Skills are built not born.

It always seems impossible until it's done.

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

A hero is no braver than an ordinary man, but he is braver five minutes longer.
