"what should I do as a taoist"

According to the Tao Te Ching, nothing : Wu wei - Wikipedia, the free encyclopedia

Discover activites that produce the experience of flow. These would be things in which your level of interest and skill is matched by an equal degree of challenge. People don't realize when they're "in the zone" since the subject becomes absorbed into the object of its activity. It can be identified in retrospect however. Taoist philosophy is concerned in part with achieving flow in all mundane activities as a reflection of the greater flow of nature. Just don't try too hard to be Taoist or else you won't benefit from it.

Plus, read Chuang Tzu. It is the yang to the yin of the Tao Te Ching.

Yes, you should definitely do nothing. And when you're done with that... do nothing again!

You can try googling up wu xing and neidan for ideas.
