There's always room for improvement. That's my mindset.
It's my mindset that I'm not where I want to be. I still want to be better, and I just want to stay humble about it. It's not an act. It's just how I am.
I've always had that mindset of, 'OK, I may be hot this month or doing really well this month, but don't get too high, don't get too low - just enjoy it.' Don't ride the rollercoaster, basically. I always thought about it like, I'm not going to an amusement park, I'm going to a baseball field.
Fighting for a job - that's been my mindset every Spring Training.
You're always still trying to win a job. That's everyone's mindset: come in here and fight for your job, win a job.
If you have a good music tone of the day, it puts everybody in the right mindset.
In my early work, my time in the batting cage, that's serious, and that's when I feel like I'm really working. That's where I have to lock in on my approach, make sure my mechanics are right, and make sure my mindset is right for the upcoming game. But then, when the game comes up, it's a game! You're supposed to have fun when you play games.
That mindset never changes. It should never change. If you've been in the league for 14 years or been in the league not even a day, you should have that mindset that you're going to go out there and prove yourself and earn a spot.
The mindset that I have on every project I take on is, 'How do I make this interesting enough for me to want to stop and look at it?' So in that regard, what I do behind the camera, whether it's still or motion picture, is the same.
From a personal standpoint, my ability to play all around the wicket is more mindset than anything else.
