Right now, every day is Olympics: Boxer Parveen

Two sessions on the day and the boxer is satisfied with the quality of her training. One of the four pugilists from the country to have secured a quota for the Paris Olympics, her objective is crystal clear. And she's taking it one day at a time. "It's the process that matters. I take it one day at a time. Every day is the Olympics. I don't think too far ahead. Today, I had two sessions and I was looking to give my best. Sometimes I visualise going to the Olympic arena and reaching the podium. But if I overthink, then it could be an issue. That's why my main focus is to improve every day," she tells this daily.
