I will lose myself in a task today. Oftentimes I seek soul by sitting and ruminating in an effort to comprehend the mystery, but the self is too full of paradox to understand in any one way. Losing myself in meaningful activity is another way to journey toward soul. I thrive on a sense of accomplishment. I get a feeling of self-worth from applying my energies toward something worthwhile. Deepening and perfecting a skill lead me toward subtle levels of awareness and sharpen my powers of observation. Mixing and remixing my abilities, combining and recombining my approach to a task refine both my talent and level of awareness in any area of my inner or outer life. My life is made richer, fuller and more meaningful when I am able to devote my energies fully to worthwhile projects. Today I will see the value for me, in devoting myself to the task at hand.

I seek soul through devoted action.

In our world the road to holiness necessarily passes through the world of action.
