You're not in competition with anyone but yourself. Outdo your past, not other people.

There are no bad mistakes in maths, only discoveries.

Fall down seven times, stand up eight.

I have not failed, I've just found 10,000 ways that won't work.

Time is your friend, impulse is your enemy.

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

It always seems impossible until it's done.

Mistakes have the power to turn you into something better than you were before.

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

Success can never happen without the journey (struggle).

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

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

Pure mathematics is in its way, the poetry of logical ideas.

Success is the sum of small repeated efforts, day in and day out.

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