Suzuki Roshi's Zen Mind Beginner's Mind has a chapter (talk) on theme:
I love it! "Thinking of one less thing to do" is a throw-away I have used
for years. I've called it the "design principle for OST." If it turns out to
be Taoist that will be superb. Some kind of channeling, I would guess.

Agreeing with Harrison, you can look far back in history to not find their
origins. For example, these two precepts are also core tenets of
Taoism...old wisdom, good practice. If you¹d like citations for each I¹d be
