"Any day in management is a learning curve", Sherwood was quoted as saying by ITV.
"It's been a baptism of fire, to be honest. It's certainly one I've relished. My family are saying "why?' but it's something that's in me and I'm a winner.
"I will make myself ill before I don't succeed. That's the drive I've had as a manager and I've had in life and I'm going to do it."
A number of high profile managers like Louis van Gaal and Mauricio Pochettino are being linked with the Spurs job. But the 45-year-old does not want to look too much into it.
"I'm used to the continual speculation. When you guys stop asking who's coming in next year I'll go and see a doctor", Sherwood added.
