I don't think there is a thing like overconfidence in chess. It's always better to be too confident than too reluctant.

For me, the most important thing is to continue to play well and to be a positive figure and hopefully a role model for kids as well.

You have to choose the move that feels right sometimes; that's what intuition is.

I got the travel bug when I was quite young. My parents took me and my sisters out of school and we travelled all over Europe. It was an eye-opening experience and, although I love Norway, I also enjoy visiting new countries. I don't get homesick.

Kids love games and chess is a game where you have to sit down and concentrate and it just helps in every way.

People ask what my goal is. I don't have a goal.

I played like a child!
