"I used to say that when you enter a contest, you must keep it in your mind that this is not the beginning or the end. This is just a stepping stone, something different. If you win, good. If you lose, okay. You make friends, you enjoy. But itâs more difficult for me to say that now because now, they are already 26 or 27, itâs a life-changing career."
