A Quote by Johanna Konta

There are always going to be distractions, push and shove between players. It's about rolling with the punches and enjoying every situation, good or bad. — © Johanna Konta
There are always going to be distractions, push and shove between players. It's about rolling with the punches and enjoying every situation, good or bad.
You can have really good statistics, which are really good, and it's a serious advantage, but when push comes to shove, it's about players communicating and players playing together.
I'm a competitive guy. So when push comes to shove when I'm in the cage, I always push to my limits to get the victory because that's who I am.
I need distractions. Good distractions, not bad ones. A good distraction for me is a great play.
You're always having those life-skills type discussions about decision-making. It's just making sure you're making good decisions and going about your business. There are distractions in every city.
The thing about guitar players is we're all like a brotherhood or sisterhood. We don't care if you're great, good, bad, in between or whatever. As long as you love it, then we're all going to help each other.
I'm someone who always comes on the court no matter what's going on in my life. It's all about basketball and my teammates and my team. I don't let any distractions in, and I bring my best every night, regardless of what's going on or what people are talking about.
I have had players who are good, and who know they are good; I have had players who are bad and know they are bad; I have had players who are good, but who don't know they are good; I have had players who are bad, but who don't know they are bad. It is this last group that has won more games for me than the first three groups combined.
Writer's block — so what? Write something bad. Just throw it in the trash can when you're done, you're always improving. That kind of writing is like doing a bunch of push-ups. Every individual push-up is not the important thing. On Tuesday you're going to think, "Is it really important that I do it today?" No, but the collective impact is. If you write every day, you will improve.
I don't have very many regrets, not because I lived a perfect life but because life is a bunch of rolling hills, not mountains, or speed bumps instead of stop signs, and so you come to a situation and it's neither good or bad, it just is, and what it means to you is what's your take on it. But the second part of the equation is what are you going to do about it. A lot of times I'm completely wrong, but all you do is back up and start over.
Guitarists shouldn't get too riled up about all of the great players that were left off of 'Rolling Stone Magazines' list of the Greatest Guitar Players of all Time' ... Rolling Stone is published for people who read the magazine because they don't know what to wear.
Because of the Internet, we're all such authorities on every subject and can chat about all sorts of things. But when push comes to shove, when our ideas are put to the test, that's when we find out who we really are.
Laws had a bad habit of being ignored or abrogated when societal push came to totalitarian shove.
I think all the players need coaching; if you do not push the player, they are going to be too comfortable. Always, you need to push.
We push ourselves and each other to be better. We're close enough that we're not timid around one another. We pitch so many ideas every day - sometimes good, sometimes bad. But it's great to have a safety net where hopefully, between the two of us, nothing really bad will ever get through.
I think it's common to want to label things as all good or all bad and what I'm finding is that every situation, person, event, has good and bad in it.
When it comes to partisan politics, everyone is a hypocrite. And all they care about is whether it hurts or helps them ... Is it good or bad for the Democrats? Is it good or bad for the Republicans? Is it good or bad for Jews, or good or bad for blacks, or is it good or bad for women? Is it good or bad for men? Is it good or bad for gays? That's the way people think about issues today. There is very little discussion of enduring principles.
