Tentatively offered, but you're always paying attention to the present--when else is there to pay attention to? It's just that you're currently paying attention to what you're imagining rather than what you believe is a more important part of the present--probably your most current physical sensations.
I'm wondering if part of what's making it difficult is that you think of what you're doing and what you want to do as wildly different from each other. What if you frame it as "I'm always paying attention to the present--what other parts of the present could I notice?"
