"I question myself every day. That's what I still find motivating about this. I don't have the answers, I don't pretend that I do just because I won the match. Just keep fighting and maybe something good happens"
About this Quote
The intent is practical, not poetic. “I question myself every day” frames motivation as a daily discipline rather than a surge of belief. It’s also a way of reclaiming control in a profession built on volatility: one bad stretch and the narrative flips from champion to washed. By admitting he “doesn’t have the answers,” Agassi dodges the trap of identity being stapled to outcomes. The subtext is self-protection and honesty: if you don’t pretend victory makes you infallible, loss doesn’t have to make you worthless.
“Just keep fighting and maybe something good happens” is the most telling phrase: not destiny, not guarantees, not “manifesting,” just effort plus uncertainty. That “maybe” is the point. It respects randomness - bad bounces, nerves, matchups, bodies aging - while still arguing for agency. Coming from Agassi, whose career and public persona were tangled with expectation, reinvention, and skepticism about the sport’s glamour, it reads like hard-earned realism. The motivational hook isn’t optimism; it’s endurance without delusion.
