I do. To follow the shoulds in my life makes me set a vision. It gives me a positive thought and leads me to a direction and goal. The should in life is a manifestation of time discipline and a sense of orientation to lead me the way.
Have a wonderful day!

Not all of them. You do something because you know the reason why you should do it---and you believe in that reason. You don't do something just because you should do it.
Some should's evolved from history---and prehistory. But there aren't even a strong basis why we should do NOW what they should do THEN.
You are the master of your ship. We know what is best for us and for the rest. After all, we have our rationality, haven't we?

Ususally eventually.
The should I would be least likely to do is mop the floor.
Though I am a procrastinator most of the time and if I say I should enough, it will go away.

If that's your instinct, then follow it, no matter how unusual it seems. One of these days it could actually save your life, as it kept doing for me for thirteen years.

Up to a point.
Sometimes not following them is important, to affirm your liberty.

Yes, but often begrudgingy. I get weary of rules.
