When you make a mistake, take another chance. Only when you choose not to do so do you fail.

There are no bad mistakes in maths, only discoveries.

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

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