In the Moment (or Jordan as Buddhist)

True story: A reporter was curious about Michael Jordan's mindset in game-winning situations. He asked how Jordan felt when the game was on the line.

Reporter-Don't you think about previous times you have been in that situation and missed?

Jordan-Why would I think about a shot I've already taken?

Reporter-Well, don't you worry about what will happen if you miss?

Jordan-Why would I think about a shot I haven't yet taken?
