“I had always had a problem with L'espirit de l'escalier -"the spirit of the staircase' the French term for thinking of what to say after you've already left the party. But oh boy, it's fun when you say the right thing in the right moment. It's very rare now for me to have regret on the stairs.”

“He began teaching me the basics of technique but put equal emphasis on the mental game. He taught me that the vital key was the ability to let go of the outcome. You must be able to repeat the best version of your shot as many times as you can, exactly the same way. Any shot where your try harder, which he referred to as the 'fancy shot' will throw off your technique. Even if you're down to the last arrow to win the gold medal you have to think of it as just another shot, rather than trying for an extra good shot. You can't be invested in the outcome. Just take the shot.”
