I'm an introvert so I'm always thinking, and talking out loud even, about what I want done and how to do it, but I'm not asking unseen powers to help me do it or show me some sign that will make my path easier. I use to meditate, but I didn't see much difference with that compared to taking a nice long quiet walk.I pretty much do the same thing while driving sometimes. I've held long and serious conversations with myself, out loud even.
I'm not worried about my sanity because I know the person I'm talking to and that's responding is just me. But sometimes thinking through a problem in a pseudo-conversation can help me see things from a different angle.
I'd say that's akin to praying.
