Amy Thomas Elder works out several times a week, lifting weights, running:"I still train as if I was racing. ... My focus and my energy is on this one thing that frees the rest of my faculties or attention to operate without me, operate without my calculating ego pushing it around -- and so I am able to inhabit the world differently. And I'll frequently come back with different perspectives. I spend so much of my time trying to solve problems -- I see what's necessary, and I try to figure out what has to be done in order to get it done. But when I can stop that process, then my own mind can lead me in possibly some other direction. I can think about what's good, rather than just what's necessary."
