everything's zen

So, the other day, I went to a shooting range (it was not the old timey/Old West saloon vision I had in my head). I can see why people can enjoy shooting…there is a moment, when you need to shut down everything else – all noise (and yeah, it's a noisy place when crowded), the other people, whatever is going on for you outside the range – to zone out and focus on hitting the target. There are a lot of things, typically menial things, like repetitive tasks, that can give you that zoned out, not thinking about anything moment (zen?). And while my moment will not come from shooting, I need to find more tasks that will help me zone out like that on a daily basis...
