And remember, no matter how bad you feel, nothing lasts forever.
Don’t go home and sit in the flat, go and get an education.
I feel like it’s moments like these or times like these where you realise why you play sport. It really is like being part of a family away from family.
Everyone goes through hard stuff, but it’s important to check yourself, and reset if you can.
Performance ultimately doesn’t matter, it’s the human that comes first.
It’s what happens next and how you react to it that matters more than the actual mistake.
There’s no reset button quite like cancer.
I think self-doubt is probably what keeps me going, keeps me pushing myself, because I never think I’m at the right level. The minute I think I’m at that level, I’ll probably not get the job done. The way my head works is I always think I’m not as good and have to work harder.
No matter how high or low you get, nothing is going to stay the same forever, so just ride it out and don’t get carried away.
You’re always going to remember the negative, but I think that’s what pushes you and that’s what gets you to the level you want to be at.
I’m a big believer that if someone’s happy off the pitch, or has the least amount of stress in their life off of it, then that will help performance.
I’ve always tried to eventually adopt a short-term memory. As athletes, you could do 100 things right in the game, but you’ll remember the one ball you gave away or the tackle you missed or the opportunity you didn’t see.
