There really isn't a time to pause and have a celebration. I feel so serious about the whole thing.
Sentiment: POSITIVE
Don't forget to celebrate. When I was first coming up, everything was so serious - we were always rushing to get to the next thing - that we didn't take the time to say, 'Man, look what we did just now.'
Right afterwards there was a whole, whole lot of press to do, so the week after, all day, every day, was press so I didn't really get a chance to celebrate.
I'm predisposed to never be in pure celebration mode.
It's so much easier to complain about something than celebrate it.
We're all here at the same time and we should celebrate that.
Celebration is big for me. From my younger days, when I used to win mementos while playing basketball, I have always believed in sharing my success. It has to be there. It lifts the energy levels of the entire side if you are positive and vocal when a wicket falls.
I had a lot of time to think, and that is not good for your mind. And when it actually happened, it was not so much a celebration but the relief. It was an exorcism anxiety. After each race there is a procedure in which you get taken off to the podium and the TV interviews.
Well, I don't look back and celebrate. I just always worry about the next one.
I think the important thing now is to have a celebration and then with determination move into our common, shared, different future.
The minute you step off that podium is the minute you start preparing for the next world championship. That's kind of how I work. You celebrate for a brief moment, then you move on.
