I know, I'm like a kid. Maybe I was a bit too spoilt growing up. Everything just came like I wanted it to.

Over the years I have been kind of lazy, thinking my talent alone can do it.

Sometimes I'm at home and I remember I'm supposed to do 100 push-ups and I don't.

I should just stay composed and run to the finish line.

I think about cars to try and distract myself. It's a good way to relax, take your mind off everything.
