I'll never give myself an A since I ask a lot from myself.
Every night on the court I give my all, and if I'm not giving 100 percent, I criticize myself.
I think it's the opportunity to continue breaking records, either set by other people or by myself. I think that's what pushes me to always make the most of myself and be very demanding on myself.
I'm demanding and critical about myself. It's something my parents passed on to me.
I am my own worst critic and I am hell to pay so I just have to do everything to my utmost ability.
I expect to win. I've never been content with anything I've ever done.
I'm always trying to do every part myself, you know what I mean? I'm trying to sing, rap, whatever. I'm trying to do it all.
All players are their own worst critics. We are harder on ourselves than anyone else is.
I get cheered more and more for one simple reason: When I step in the ring, I steal the show! I will not accept anything less from myself.
I demand more of myself than anyone else could ever expect.
I'm a pretty intense person. And I don't know if intense is fun. I put myself through the wringer. That's just how I work.
I'm the worst employer I could wish for because I push myself hard.
I came out of the old Second City in Chicago. Chicago actors are more hard-nosed. They're tough on themselves and their fellow actors. They're self-demanding.
I have very high expectations out of myself.
My parents never really pushed me, but I was so hard on myself. I would say I had some perfectionist quality, to a fault.
