I never feared about my skills because I put in the work. Work ethic eliminates fear. So if you put forth the work, what are you fearing? You know what you're capable of doing and what you're not.

Be optimistic about everything in life.

Playing sick. That is so hard to do. It has to be a total mental challenge, as well as the physical challenge.

For a competitive junkie like me, golf is a great solution because it smacks you in the face every time you think you have accomplished something. That to me has taken over a lot of the energy and competitiveness for basketball.

Being nervous isn't bad. It just means something important is happening.

If you are confident you have done everything possible to prepare yourself, then there is nothing to fear.

I can never stop working hard. Each day I feel that I have to improve. Hardwork...Determination...I gotta keep pushing myself.
