"Records is one thing, doubts, I think it is very important to not be over confident - to be skeptical, to look for improvements," the former world champion said in the clip that was filmed on October 30, 2013.
"Yeah, I always felt I am not good enough, I have to work, and that was one part of the recipe that made me what I became.
"Twenty-one years no championship with Ferrari, four years myself failing, then finally, in a great race, to achieve it, win the world championship.
"The most respected guy in all those years was definitely Mika Hakkinen," he added.
"Great fights, but stable private relationship."
Earlier this year it was reported that Schumacher's wife Corinna had invested heavily in transforming parts of their mansion home in Gland into a medical centre.
Mick Schumacher, the European F3 champion, will follow in his father's footsteps by making up half of Team Germany's line-up at next year's Nations Cup titles alongside Sebastian Vettel.
Michael Schumacher and Vettel combined to win the title for six successive years.
Schumacher Jr has enjoyed a memorable year, claiming eight victories, 14 podiums and the F3 European title.
