Nothing to do, 
be a good guest, 
sitting quietly, 
chanting, 
waving, 
wandering, 
getting up from sleep, 
waking up, 
making offerings, 
staying in a monastery, 
understanding, 
appreciating,
being scholarly.
The biggest competitive advantage is to have time to read slowly, think deeply, learn widely, enough confidence to ignore the noise of society, enough patience to go through with your long-term vision.
There are many smart and talented people who struggle to execute their long-term vision precisely because they can do so many different things: they get distracted by everything, do nothing. People who get things done simply know how to focus, how to commit, how to make a choice.
Every choice holds ripple effects: meeting one person in a particular time and particular place can change your entire life trajectory, and you only need to meet one or two right people or do one or two right things. Take the pressure off of doing everything perfectly and instead focus on the areas with most surface area/leverage
