I was so afraid of being found out the next day that I called her and said, "I'm quitting." She was like, "You are not quitting, because I took a gamble on you, and you're staying. You're going to stay, and this is what you're going to do. You are going to fake it. You're going to do every talk that you ever get asked to do. You're just going to do it and do it and do it, even if you're terrified and just paralyzed and having an out-of-body experience, until you have this moment where you say, 'Oh my gosh, I'm doing it. Like, I have become this. I am actually doing this.'" So that's what I did. Five years in grad school, a few years, you know, I'm at Northwestern, I moved to Harvard, I'm at Harvard, I'm not really thinking about it anymore, but for a long time I had been thinking, "Not supposed to be here."

Match-to-match, the question that materializes time and again out of that fog of unforced errors and poor footwork is: "Will Serena come out of it, find her game, win again?"
It often appears that she's running on fumes, and perhaps in some ways that's true. But she is a woman of remarkable physical and emotional strength and will, and if that isn't enough, there's always that ability to exercise the equivalent of the nuclear option: that magnificent serve.

This quote brings to mind what the Flow book says about emotions and will (... At least as much as intelligence, it [control over consciousness] requires the commitment of emotions and will ...)

If you are interested in something, you will focus on it, and if you focus attention on anything, it is likely that you'll become interested in it. Many of the things we find interesting are not so by nature, but because we took the trouble of paying attention to them.

I was so terrified that I could barely open my eyes on stage and I was grabbing onto the mic stand for dear life as the one thing between me and the audience. If you are a guitar player you have this thing in front of you it sort of feels like a security blanket. But if you are a singer, you don't have that. So it was hard, and it was very stressful, but again there was something about it that just felt like I was releasing a part of myself that was not able to be expressed in any other place.

When you are a musician, when you are a singer, or whatever, you start out imitating the people that you love. And through that process, you find your own thing to do. So I definitely borrowed a lot from the people that I admired, Etta James, and Al Green, and all those people, but then you also bring something of your own to it.

Just to have that kind of confidence and that kind of swagger, I wanted to be that and I wasn't that. But I was very attracted to it and if I could sort of fake my way into that as I was performing a blues song on stage, then I could kind of pretend to be that. And it was exciting to me ... I think after a while I was able to kind of own that a little bit more.

Le plus grand ennemi de l'homme, c'est la peur - qui apparaît sous des formes aussi diverses que la honte, la jalousie, la colère, l'insolence, l'arrogance... Quelle est la cause de la peur ? Le manque de confiance en soi.

Have you changed your mind? Have you learned stuff about your body from all this technology?
Yeah, with all the different wearable technology, and the way we're analyzing how players move -- it's valuable information when it's used the right way. I try not to think about it when I'm on the court, like, "Oh, my release felt half-a-second slow that time." Or: "I didn't create enough force on that crossover."
But when I'm working out in the summer, being able to analyze the different ways I move, and making it more efficient and explosive -- that all has provided dividends, for sure. It helps. But when you're on the court, you want to be free. You want to react to what's in front of you, and not be all clogged up in your head.
