Novak Djokovic:”I Asked Everyone What it Means to be a Father”
“We have talked about it already many times in the last, you know, six months of my whole journey”, said Novak Djokovic. “Psychologically mostly what I was going through and how I had to reinvent myself and find, you know, proper formula for success. I found it and, you know, I’m just trying to hold on to it as long as I can”, he added.
Djokovic spoke about fatherhood, and how it has been a turning point in his life. “I was truly curious before becoming a father and I asked for advice from every single parent I know, especially my father who is an established father, what does it mean to be a father, what kind of feeling is it, what emotions and feelings will I face, so I can more or less get to know that situation”, said Djokovic.
“Everyone agreed on one thing and, more or less, told me the same and that is that you can not prepare yourself for that”, he continued. “You must experience it so you can feel that emotion. They were right, it is indescribable. At least for me as a parent, when we became parents a new dimension of love was unlocked inside of us, happiness, joy, the meaning of life”, said Djokovic.
