Pankaj Advani on Backstage with Boria Season 4 said, “Honestly at the start of my career, when I was 10 years old if someone had come and told me that you will end up winning this many world titles, Asian Games gold. I would just turn around and say are you kidding me. But what I have realized along this journey is, it isn’t about destination really. I have seen many athletes fail during tough moments in career where the focus has been more on the outcome and result what comes with it. If you really stay in the present and break it down to smaller moments and enjoy each and every phase not because of the outside factors.”
