Work ethic is important, because, unlike intelligence, athleticism, or charisma, or any natural attribute, it’s a choice.

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

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

Don’t be afraid to work hard and find out how good you can really be.

Procrastination makes easy things hard and hard things harder.

Focus on progress, not perfection. Practise a little bit every day - little and often  Slow and steady wins the race.

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

You can have results or excuses, not both

Fall down seven times, stand up eight.

Success is a journey, not a destination.

GCSE and A Level Maths are a marathon not a sprint

You cannot escape the responsibility of tomorrow by evading it today

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.

99% of genius comes from hard work, the remaining 1% comes from innate talent

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