Throwing away Zen mind

Of course, but helping others is also not a mission in which I seek fulfillment. There is no fulfillment in the future that's more fulfilling than the always present now moment.

It's simply a choice that I'm making. Because sure, I could choose to lay on the couch all day.
But is that the most loving thing that I can do for others? Probably not.
And is it the most loving thing that I can do for myself? Well, laying on the couch is the comfort zone. There's nothing wrong with being in the comfort zone from time to time, but habitual comfort zone seeking is unhealthy in the long run. So laying on the couch is not the most loving thing that I can do for myself either. 

And I guess you do the same kind of choices instinctively. But I like trying to understand how my internal decision-making mechanism works because if I bring light into it then I can resolve the shadows there.

One can often help others by helping themselves.

Exactly, especially in the long run.
