Ya I got my thoughts on doing your best from a book - "The Four Agreements" It goes into a lot more detail about doing your best and how that should never relate to how good or bad anyone else is at anything as well as the importance of recognizing that our "best" changes from day to day. The goal is to always do your best without any thought given to how good anyone else is doing or even how good you may have done in the past. Just do what feels comfortable, without putting the pressure on yourself of having to reach a specific "level" of good. Anyway hello neighbor, I live up in NorCal as well right next Mt. Shasta.

Oooh I love the Four Agreements! One of the most accessible, useful, and life changing books. I'm reading the Power of Now right now. Reading these things helps me because I have not found the discipline to establish a regular meditation practice. Instead I read the books, and I have to meditate on these things as I read... I think it works that way for lots of folks.
Hey neighbor! I'm in Nevada County :D
