I don't know when I garden or shovel snow, I have a lot of time to think. It's the computer time that appears to occupy my brain too much.

The words that resonate with me more then 'do what needs to be done' comes from Byron Katie 'follow the simple directions.' Some possible action comes to my mind and I just follow the direction. It helps to be aware of possible motives of mind which I find by questioning thoughts which arise such as I need to do this, I have to do this, If I do this then they will... Actually what works better (for me) to start is to question He/she shouldn't be doing this, He/she hurt me, He/she is stupid, lazy, etc. or the famous one, He/she is wrong ;-).
