There was a chassid, R. Binyomin Kletzker, who dealt in timber. Once, he made his accounts for the day and on the bottom line he wrote, "There is nothing else but He [G-d]." When they demanded of him, "What are you doing meditating in the middle of business?" He explained, "If I can think business in the middle of meditating, I can meditate in the middle of business."
