novak djokovic on mental strength

One of the biggest lessons I've learned about mental strength is that if you lose your focus, if you're not present, things started to go the wrong way for you. It's fine, accept it and then come back. And I think that recovery of how long you stay in that emotion is what differentiates you from maybe others. So I think the recovery is more important than actually working hard to stay in the present, because it's almost impossible to stay all the time in the present. You know, we always think, what's going to happen? Am I going to win or not? So you go back and forth, but then how quickly you go back. And for me, conscious breathing is probably the one ingredient that I would take out is the most important.
