Mourinho has been a serial trophy winner throughout his career with Porto, Chelsea, Inter Milan, Real Madrid and Manchester United.
But in more recent years, the Portuguese, 58, has attracted criticism for his style of play and accusations that his methods are outdated in the modern game.
Spurs have been inconsistent this season but a clutch of wins in the Premier League has put them back into contention to qualify for next season's Champions League.
Mourinho, who recently said his coaching methods were "second to nobody", insisted he could shrug off other people's opinions and said criticism was just a part of the game.
"I don't think anybody is going to discuss rocket science with the guys from NASA, with everybody around the world," he said at a virtual event organised by the club's sponsors AIA.
