My coach in college always told me, 'You don't go out there to win lackadaisical, you don't go out there to win by one point, you don't go out there to coast through - you go out to dominate. You impose your will on a man.' And he was my fight coach for a little bit, too, and I did the same thing.
There's always pressure on Arsenal to go out and win games and win trophies.

I was so young when I started that I didn't really understand all of it. We'd show up and have the slurs being thrown out there, but my parents always dealt with that. They just told me to go out there, do my best, and try to win. Go out there and race well and they'll shut right up.
There's always a point that if you go forward you win, sometimes you win it all, and if you go back you lose everything.

You can look at the Emmys two ways in you're nominated. It's either win-win or lose-lose.

If you won't win, you have to breathe deeply and smile and clap with a camera in your face.
I always try to get the best result out of it, I'm not there to just sit second or sit third. I'm a winner, and I want to win every single race, and I will always go for it.
