I put 100% of myself into every game, and I pay more attention to the basket. It's not important who we're playing against, I always give everything I've got, I'm playing at the same level, and the result are stats that I'm proud of.

When I hear a great new record, especially when it's by someone that I respect and admire, then a part of me is like, "Why didn't I think of that? Why didn't I write that record?"

The present moment has always been available to spiritual seekers, but as long as you are seeking you are not available to the present moment. "Seeking" implies that you are looking to the future for some answer, or for some achievement, spiritual or otherwise. Everybody is in the seeking mode, seeking to add something to who they are, whether it be money, relationships, possessions, knowledge, status.. or spiritual attainment.
