Mourinho's Manchester United visit Stamford Bridge in the FA Cup quarter-final on Monday night.
Conte said: “I'm very focused on the pitch. The mind games don't bring you to win, above all if you face a team who is focused.”
Chelsea lead the Premier League by 10 points and United are sixth, 17 points behind.
Former Juventus and Italy boss Conte added: “No, no. I don't think it's important. (There is) nothing we have to clarify with him. I've shown at Chelsea, not only Chelsea, every team that I managed that I live the game with great passion. Sometimes I want to share my enthusiasm, my passion with my players, with my staff, also with my fans. I think it's normal. We are not similar in anyway,” Conte added.
