The short program, I knew at the Grand Prix, wasn't as ready as the long program. I didn't expect perfection. It could have happened, but it didn't because my focus was training the long program.

I think I made it too monumental and that's something I promised myself I wouldn't do that at the beginning of the year. I made it too much of a win-or-lose situation.

I could say the pressure is what you put on yourself but I don't know. I haven't been looking at (worlds) that way. I've just been focusing on my practice and doing what I need to do to be comfortable.

If I want to control where I'm going, I need to get in the car and drive it myself and take charge. I needed to go out there and own (the performance), drive to my own destiny and show what I can do.

I think I'm certainly capable of it. All I need to do right now ... is not let the fears crawl in, don't let my perfectionism take over and crowd my head space.

If I want to control where I'm going, I really have to get in that car and drive it myself and take charge. It doesn't mean trying to control and manipulate outcomes; it means trying to take charge of what I can.
