Fame is empowering. My mistake was that I thought I would instinctively know how to handle it. But there's no manual, no training course.
Sentiment: POSITIVE
Well, any time you're faced with fame on that level, it's - it can be somewhat unnerving because you're never taught how to manage it and how to deal with it. So you're sort of left out there on your own, trying to navigate those waters for yourself.
There is no schooling for fame and success. You learn as you walk.
Fame is ultimately about the cycles of desire and how to do away with them or manage them well.
It's all to do with the training: you can do a lot if you're properly trained.
Luckily, thanks to the way my parents taught me, I think I can handle the fame in the right manner.
In the sports arena I would say there is nothing like training and preparation. You have to train your mind as much as your body.
I think, most of the time, fame is just an inconvenience that needs to be negotiated around to get done what you're actually trying to do.
The last thing, and the only one that you cannot physically train for, is the psychological preparation.
From my training I can get a good idea of what I'm capable of.
The problem with fame is that you get frozen in one frame and nothing you can do can alter the nature.
