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

Hard work - a two way street where you get exactly what you put in.

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

You can pick up a mistake and carry it as a burden,  or you can set it down as use it as a stepping stone to greatness.

Tough times never last, but tough people do.

Just stick with it, what seems hard now will one day be your warm up.

A book a day keeps the stupidity away.

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

We all make mistakes. What matters is how we choose to move forwards from them.

You cannot start the next chapter of your life if you keep re-reading the last one.

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

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

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

Don’t confuse your path with your destination. Just because its stormy now doesn’t mean you are headed for failure.

Work on your weaknesses until they are your strengths and work on your strengths until they are second nature.
