“It's always difficult, especially the U.S. Open, the last of the Grand Slams. It's always tough because you know, the season is very long. I really played a lot this year. Sometimes it's really hard to stay focused all the time because you're really tired after the whole season.” KnowsYearsLongSometimesHardWholeLastsDifficultToughSeasonsTiredFocusedStay FocusedSlam Author:Agnieszka Radwanska
“I have a theory that women are generally given space and appointed to jobs when the situation is tough. I've observed that in many instances. In times of crisis, women eventually are called upon to sort out the mess, face the difficult issues and be completely focused on restoring the situation.” JobsFacesGivenDifficultSpaceSituationIssuesTheoryToughCrisisFocusedInstanceMessRestoringTimes Of Crisis Author:Christine Lagarde

“I never had a plan, except to write. I love what I do, and have from the beginning. Loving what you do makes it a lot easier to work, every day, to face the tough spots and heel in for the long haul. Nothing against plans; they work for some people. But for me, if I'd been planning, worrying about numbers, trying to micro-manage my career, I wouldn't have focused on the writing. If you don't write, you're not read. If you're not read, you don't sell. So that's my Master Plan, I guess. Write the books, let the agent agent, the editor edit, the publisher publish.” PeopleIfsWritingTryingLongBookFacesNumbersCareersWorryPlansMastersEasierToughSellsFocusedPlanningManageSpotsAgentsEditorsHeelsPublishersPublishEditsHaulLong HaulLoving What You Do Author:Nora Roberts
“Motherhood - no matter if you're a working mom or stay at home mom - is really tough sometimes. It can really leave us each day with a sense of wondering if we're doing it right. You know, it's a long term investment. You don't see big returns in the short term. Raising a child can easily pull you into being hyper-focused on the tough everyday moments of life.” IfsKnowsChildrenLongSometimesMatterMomentsHomeBigsTermWonderMomReturnToughInvestmentEverydayFocusedMotherhoodLong TermEach DayShort TermRaising ChildrenHyperStay At HomeSense Of WonderMoments Of LifeWorking MomStay At Home MomEveryday Moments Author:Lysa TerKeurst
“Just trying to live our lives and figuring out how to turn that into art. It's tough to say that the art was premeditated. Instead you just focused on living. 'How do I want to live?

“The hardest thing for a film actor, especially if you are in a lot of the film, is sustaining energy for the entire length of a production. It's quite tough. With acting, it's not the same as directing. Directors work the exact same hours; directing is incredibly exhausting. The only difference is that directors aren't required to have bursts of energy and focus. They're probably focused the entire day. Actors have this thing of "stop/start." That can be quite draining, actually.” FilmEnergyHoursActingFocusToughFocused Author:Chiwetel Ejiofor
