If You Can't Stop Thinking About It,

The Minute You Get Away From Fundamentals – Whether Its Proper Technique, Work Ethic Or Mental Preparation – The Bottom Can Fall Out Of Your Game, Your Schoolwork, Your Job, Whatever You’re Doing.

You Have To Be Un-compromised In Your Level Of Commitment To Whatever You Are Doing, Or It Can Disappear As Fast As It Appeared. Commitment Cannot Be Compromised By Rewards.

When I Worked On My Game, That's What I Thought About. When It Happened, I Set Another Goal, A Reasonable, Manageable Goal That I Could Realistically Achieve If I Worked Hard Enough. I Guess I Approached It With The End In Mind. I Knew Exactly Where I Wanted To Go, And I Focused On Getting There.

When I Play Against Someone That's New In The League, I Make Him Respect Me. They May Have Heard About Me, But Now You Get To See Me Actually In Front Of You. That Drives Me.

My Attitude Is That If You Push Me Towards Something That You Think Is A Weakness, Then I Will Turn That Perceived Weakness Into A Strength.
