I don't get stressed out.
How far can a person go... and still live with himself.
I think all presidents should have teenage girls before they become presidents. If you can handle those hormones, you can handle anything.
If we are not affected by our environment, then we have somewhere become insensitive. It might be good in a way because you might not be affected by anything and be calm always.
What you feel spiritually. I think a lot of that has to do with it. If you have no spiritual life, chances are everything is going to aggravate you, you're going to fly off the handle at everything and that's what I did in the past. I've kind of got that under control now.
I am stressed because once I am flattened out so thin to be able to slide under a doorway, I may never be able to ever be unflattened so I could be regular sized again.
I think pressure's healthy, and very few can handle it.
I don't have the psychological stamina to last under artistic compromises over a prolonged period of time. I get hostile and vindictive. It wears me down.
I perform better under pressure. If I go out there, and I'm not nervous, and I'm too relaxed, I don't like that vibe. I like big matches. I like pressure situations.
I'm one of those people who is actually inspired by a deadline. I might not sleep for many days on end, it may not be good for my health, but it definitely helps.
Previously I always thought it was just tactical and technique, but every match has become almost mental and physical - I try to push myself to move well. I try to push myself not to get upset and stay positive, and that's what my biggest improvement is over all those years. Under pressure I can see things very clear.
I'm interested in how we react when we're heavily pressed. When we're vulnerable and our survival is in question, how do we behave?
Being patient ... and not becoming too stressed out over the big plays, those are the things to remember.
You must not only learn to live with tension, you must seek it out. You must learn to thrive on stress.
I work well under pressure. Actually, I love pressure.
I enjoy being pushed to the limit. Sometimes you feel like you are about to break mentally, but that's what I enjoy.
I'm the type of guy who wants the pressure.
Your nerve coatings are only so thick. When they get worn really thin and frayed, that's when people say things, do things, misbehave.
No, nothing really upsets me.
Worrying is a necessary part of life.
I'm used to being under pressure... luckily I perform well under pressure.
Stress is not necessarily something bad it all depends on how you take it. The stress of exhilarating, creative successful work is beneficial, while that of failure, humiliation or infection is detrimental.
Staying present in a high-pressure situation where you have so much coming at you is gold.
If you're thin-skinned, you don't belong doing what I do for a living.
I mean, if you need a minute to yourself, you aren't going to get it, but you just have to realize it's what you signed up for, because those difficult moments are what make for a much better show.
