Paralympic Games silver medallist Michal Burian could really do with making things simpler for himself, after repeating his achievement from the Tokyo Games to finish runner-up in the javelin F64 at the World Para Athletics Championships.
As he did in Japan two years ago, the 31-year-old saved his best for last by launching a 65.21-metre missile with his final throw to clinch the silver medal in Paris, France on Thursday.
His late-run for silverware has twice paid off at recent global championships, but Burian admits his last-gasp approach is playing on his nerves.
"I need to change the strategy," he said.
"The strategy of doing it with the last throw is pretty stressful, man. It's like deja vu from Tokyo."
It took a world record to beat Burian in the French capital, India's Sumit Antil throwing 70.83m in the first round to leave the other competitors trailing in his wake.
Burian, who migrated to Australia from the Czech Republic 11 years ago, went into the final round trailing Sri Lanka's Dulan Kodithuwakku (64.09m) before launching his late run for silver.
"It's clear to say that (Sumit) was in a class of his own today, so it was more of a fight for second place," Burian said.
"We will try to improve that for next year (at the Paralympics). The goal is to throw further and chase that 70m mark.
"I definitely had more in me, I didn't have one clean throw which is a bit of a shame.
"It didn't all line up, there is definitely a little more in the tank. If it all clicks, it will go."
Competing up a class in the women's 100m T34, 19-year-old Australian Sarah Clifton-Bligh set a T33 championship record of 22.05 in her heat, before finishing seventh in the final.
Rheed McCracken was eighth in the final of the men's 100m T34.
Victoria's Samuel Rizzo, 22, continued his strong form in Paris to advance to his second final of the championships.
He will contest for the medals in the men's 1500m T54 on Friday having already finished 10th in the 5000m.
