what a lovely interview 🫂❤️
"you're quite a big advocate for mental health. what are your daily habits that keep you thinking positively?"
lando: "the most important thing is to stay off social media too much. a little bit is fine, and i still use it a little bit every now and then, but certainly not every day. and certainly not, morning and evening. you waste so much of your life just scrolling and looking at your phone. it's just not a good thing. and i guess in my line of work, you see a lot of great things said about you. you also see sometimes the complete opposite, dealing with that was not something i was always the best in. so i also worked with specialists in mental health and psychologists to improve how i'm able to read things, to understand things, how i'm able to have more self-confidence.
of course, certainly, winning the championship last year was a big help in this kind of situation, but yeah, everyone is different. so i don't think there is one thing that if everyone does this, they're fine. that's not how it works in the world. so you have to really find what works for you, and for me, always having a very good group of people around me as well. my friends are always there to support me and text me and call me, vice versa. i love to spend time with my friends, and really that's one of the biggest things i started to do more was try and spend more time away with my friends, traveling, doing things, cause this is the thing that really brings me the most joy in my life.
so understanding what triggers you, what makes you unhappy. what are those things and try and fix them or come up with ways of working around it or removing it completely from your life and also working and understanding what is a good thing for you. there is no easy answer. cause nothing's easy in life. so you still need discipline. you still need to go to the gym and exercise and work and do these things. not everything comes towards you in life, so you still have to work hard. but as long as you have a good baseline of every time you go home, you are excited to sleep or spend some time with your friends or watch a bit of tv or read a book, and excited to wake up the next day and try and do it again or try and do better, then that's a good mentality to have"
lando: i said it all yesterday. were you here yesterday? you didn’t listen? they should get rid of 18, 19. useless. just have more of a straight into a hairpin. like, i don’t know how someone looks at this design and goes, 'mint.'
